DDEC is a joint venture partnership between five physicians, BroMenn Physicians Management Corporation and Physicians Endoscopy, which will provide management services to the facility. DDEC is a single-specialty ambulatory surgery center focusing on gastrointestinal disorders. The center performs nearly 4,000 procedures annually.
The three-room, 6,000-square-foot center is located on the Advocate BroMenn Healthcare Campus and connected to the medical center via a skywalk. The center includes four board-certified gastroenterologists: Kenneth Schoenig, MD, medical director; Thomas DeWeert, MD; Philip Koszyk, MD; and Vijay Misra, MD; and one board-certified colorectal surgeon, Darryl Fernandes, MD.
“Over the past year, we’ve contemplated adding a corporate partner to our business. Our partnership with Physicians Endoscopy provides the ideal business structure. PE has the knowledge and expertise that our center needs to run a seamless operation and take us to the next level. We look forward to a long, successful relationship,” said Dr. Schoenig.
