Covenant Surgical continues acquisition spree with Arizona GI practice

Covenant Surgical Partners entered into a partnership with Phoenix-based Arizona Centers for Digestive Health, adding 11 practices to its portfolio.

1. AZCDH is the state's leading gastrointestinal care provider. The practice's staff of 17 physicians and 11 physician assistants and nurse practitioners provide care to more than 52,000 patients annually.

2. AZCDH also has two ASCs. Nashville, Tenn.-based Covenant seeks out practices with established ASCs as acquisition targets.

3. AZCDH was notably the first group in the U.S. to perform outpatient endoscopic ultrasounds in the standalone ASC setting.
