USMD Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: USMD), a physician-led integrated
healthcare system, announced today that two new physicians – Hedieh
Davanloo, M.D., and Paul Fabela, M.D. – have joined USMD Affiliated
Services. These new physicians have been added to support the
growing healthcare needs of the communities and patients USMD
serves.
“I am pleased to welcome Dr. Davanloo and Dr. Fabela to USMD,”
said Richard Johnston, M.D., chief physician officer and executive
vice president of USMD Holdings. “These outstanding physicians
bring tremendous experience to USMD and will allow us to continue
to meet the needs of our growing patient base and provide our
patients with the care and personal attention they deserve.”
Dr. Davanloo has joined USMD’s growing group of geriatric
medicine physicians, bringing the total number of geriatricians to
eight. Dr. Fabela, who specializes in internal medicine, brings the
total number of USMD internists to 57.
Dr. Davanloo and Dr. Fabela both accept Medicare, bringing the
