Our Story
Founded in Germany in 1988, UMS has become the premier provider of shared medical services. In the late 1990s, UMS developed the idea to mobilize over-sized medical equipment that was traditionally permanently installed within a hospital setting. Now, UMS easily moves equipment into and out of procedure suites on a daily basis. Our first transportable equipment was our lithotripsy and stereotactic breast biopsy systems. UMS has since added Urological Laser and MRI imaging to our business model and has performed more than 650,000 procedures in over 850 medical facilities throughout the US, Canada and South America.
This well-organized transportable concept has numerous advantages for medical facilities, physicians and patients:
• Additional revenue streams created without substantial investment
in equipment or personnel
• Leading-edge technology
• Highly trained and experienced Imaging Specialists assist
physicians and facilitate procedures
• Delivery, set up and retrieval of equipment will save dedicated
space and eliminates maintenance contracts and equipment
responsibilities
• Unlike mobile units that are set up in the parking lot, UMS delivers
the equipment where the service is seen and perceived by your
patients as an integral part of your medical center
• Flexible scheduling options are available to meet your specific
needs
