East Coast Radiology IncManaging Director
Sep. 2014 - Aug. 2024East London, Eastern CapeIn my role as Managing Director at East Coast Radiology Inc, I successfully doubled practice locations and revenue in the first 5 years. I introduced new modalities, studies, and protocols to enhance radiologist productivity and workflow, leading to significant growth and success for the company. In 2017 I implemented and oversaw the change management of a fully digitised PACS & RIS system (a first for ECR) which further improved service delivery and workflow as well as slashing costs significantly. During the COVID-19 pandemic I led the practice through this difficult time, preserving revenue and ECR was one of the few practices in the country that managed without having to cut staff salaries throughout the period. In 2022 I concluded a deal with Life Healthcare (in a first for South Africa), which unlocked tremendous shareholder value, and vastly improved the administration, procurement and HR/ staffing issues while retaining clinical independence for the radiologists. Since then I successfully led the integration of clinical services with the new corporate methods of LHC to ensure a smooth/ seamless transition.
