CHICAGO, June 5, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ziegler, a specialty investment bank, is pleased to announce its role as the exclusive financial advisor to Pathologists Bio-Medical Laboratories (PBM) on its recent acquisition by PathGroup.
Headquartered in Lewisville (Dallas), Texas, PBM is a preeminent anatomic pathology platform that provides services to more than one dozen hospitals and surgery centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth and broader Texas geographies through more than 40 board-certified and subspecialty pathologists. The platform's subspecialty expertise includes Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology, Breast Pathology, Cytopathology, Forensic Pathology, Gastrointestinal Pathology, Hematopathology, Liver Pathology, Molecular Pathology, Nephropathology, Neuropathology, Pulmonary Pathology, and Urologic Pathology, among others.
PBM's CAP- and CLIA-accredited laboratory in Lewisville will serve as the foundation for PathGroup's accelerated expansion into the North Texas market, and PBM's broad subspecialty expertise will complement PathGroup's existing national pathology footprint. The combined company will include more than 120 pathologists, representing every subspecialty and creating one of the most comprehensive pathology networks in the country.
"PBM and PathGroup have similar histories of providing high-quality pathology services to patients, physicians and health systems," said Peter A. Dysert, M.D., President of PBM. "Our like-minded cultures of physician leadership and private ownership will allow us to focus on what is best for the clients and patients we serve. We look forward to working with PathGroup and continuing to exceed the expectations of our hospitals and physician clients."

We couldn't be more pleased with the ideal cultural fit with PathGroup."
