ATLANTA, April 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- West Physics Consulting, LLC ("West Physics"), the leading national provider of integrated medical and health physics services, announced today that it has completed the purchase of the medical physics service division of Tricord, Inc. ("Tricord"), a full-service provider of radiation safety, health, medical, industrial, and environmental physics services based in Paducah, Kentucky.

"We are pleased to announce the acquisition of Tricord's medical physics business. This acquisition will enable us to expand our client base and enhance our diagnostic physics testing services for customers in western Kentucky, southern Missouri, southern Illinois, and Tennessee," stated Dr. Geoffrey West, President & Chief Medical Physicist of West Physics. "We appreciate that Steve Meiners and the Tricord team have placed their trust in us to continue their legacy of service and technical expertise. Additionally, we are grateful that Steve will be staying on with us for some time, on a part-time consulting basis, to ensure a smooth transition for his medical clients before turning his focus solely to operating the industrial health physics portion of Tricord under the Tricord name."
