Highly Skilled Providers. Exceptional Patient Experience.  Now One Healthcare Team.

July 2, 2018 – Fort Myers, Florida – Millennium Physician Group (Millennium) and Internal Medicine Associates (IMA) have become one organization as of July 1, 2018.

“Millennium and IMA are dedicated to improving the health care of our Southwest Florida communities and this partnership allows our organizations to combine the talents of our physicians, advanced providers and care teams to better support our patients and our communities,” says Kevin Kearns, Chief Executive Officer of Millennium.

“IMA and Millennium are able to partner together as one organization because both companies share a similar vision,” says David DePree, Chairman of IMA. “Both organizations are dedicated to being the best when it comes to caring for our patients, working with the top doctors in the area and bringing together talented care teams across Florida.”

“This is a perfect marriage of two organizations that are committed to improving the health of our communities,” says Rick Waks, D.O., Millennium Regional Chief Medical Officer.

In early July, the IMA offices will begin to transition to a centralized computer, billing and phone system, plus patients will be introduced to a new patient portal.  Most changes will happen behind-the-scenes and the IMA staff have begun training on the new Millennium systems. “Millennium and IMA remained committed to a seamless transition for patients,” says Geurt Peet, President of Millennium.

“IMA patients can trust that their provider and care team will continue to care for them in the same friendly and courteous manner that they have grown accustomed to over the years,” says Mike Collier, President and Managing Partner of IMA.   “Both IMA and Millennium are dedicated to an exceptional patient experience each and every time.”
