The leading urology, gastroenterology, and radiation oncology physician services platform in the Western United States is pleased to announce its rebranding as Unio Health Partners (“UHP”) (https://uniohp.com/). UHP, a Triton Pacific Capital Partners (“Triton Pacific”) portfolio company, was founded in 2021 as Urology Partners of America. In its first year since inception, UHP partnered with four physician practices in the greater San Diego and Los Angeles areas, growing to 75 providers consisting of 50 physicians and 25 advanced practice providers operating out of 21 locations. With a growing presence in gastroenterology and radiation oncology, UHP is changing its name to reflect its evolution as a true multi-specialty platform serving independent physicians across the Western United States.
“Urology, gastroenterology, and radiation oncology are highly complementary specialties,” said Marshal Salomon, Chief Executive Officer. “UHP’s new name reflects the maturation of our organization, continued growth across all three specialties, and our core mission of supporting and enhancing independent private practice.”
Ed Cohen, MD, President, commented: “We are excited to further expand our gastroenterology and radiation oncology divisions and to continue building a preeminent multi-specialty physician services platform in partnership with UHP. This rebranding highlights UHP’s commitment to urologists, gastroenterologists, and radiation oncologists, as well as the patients they serve.”
“‘UHP’ is both the culmination of our successes to date and the foundation of a transformational future,” added Robert Goldklang, MD, Division Head of Gastroenterology.
