PHILADELPHIA, PA — Four Northeast-based ear, nose, and throat (ENT) practices, namely Pinnacle ENT, Providence ENT, BergerHenry ENT, and Greenwich ENT, have merged to form Align ENT + Allergy (“Align”). This strategic move consolidates their expertise and resources to make a significant impact in the management services industry. With a team of 30 physicians, 28 audiologists, and 160 staff members spread across eight divisions in Pennsylvania and Connecticut, Align is well-positioned for success.
Align’s mission is to foster and advance the leading community of physician-led ENT and Allergy practices in the U.S., with the ultimate goal of preserving their clinical autonomy. The partners are committed to delivering comprehensive care and compassionate service that significantly improves patients’ lives.
James Grant, CEO of Align, explained the significance of the name. “Choosing Align as our name is purposeful. For us, being aligned means we share a common mission and values with our affiliated physicians and teammates,” said Grant. “We are coming together as partners to facilitate the protection and evolution of private practice.”
Align is backed by Zenyth Partners, a private equity firm dedicated to investing in healthcare businesses. Through this partnership, Align is able to provide practice management services while maintaining a true partnership model. Their belief is that physician-led private practice is the best way to deliver high-quality, cost-effective, personalized care for patients.
Dr. Mark Ginsburg, an otolaryngologist and facial plastic and cosmetic surgeon from Providence ENT, echoed this sentiment. “We [physicians] gain the advantages of a professionalized company while retaining local control so we can concentrate on our clinical practices and serve our local communities,” said Ginsburg.
With this merger, Align is eager to connect with ENT physicians and practices in 2024 to share the benefits of partnership. The formation of Align ENT + Allergy represents a significant development in the management services industry, demonstrating the potential strength and value of strategic collaboration.
