Committed to Making Quality Patient Care our Primary Goal
We achieve this by delivering superb subspecialty image interpretation and intervention packaged with excellent service to our patients and referring physicians.
Peer Learning
Diversified Radiology is at the forefront of a new paradigm shift in improving radiologist safety and performance by focusing on a model of peer feedback, learning, and improvement – termed Peer Learning. We have transitioned away from score based peer review which has not been shown to have a meaningful impact on or be a valid measurement instrument of radiologist performance.
Diversified transitioned to peer learning away from score based peer review in 2022. Peer Learning is a group activity in which expert professionals review one another’s work, actively give and receive feedback in a constructive manner, teach and learn from one another, and mutually commit to improving performance as individuals, as a group, and as a system. Errors are an inherent part of the practice of medicine, including radiology. The challenge, and the great opportunity, is to simultaneously accept this reality and leverage it for improvement.
24/7 Availability
Our dedicated 24/7 support team ensures every patient study is prepared and ready for rapid, accurate interpretation by our radiologists. They’re always available to route urgent calls and provide prompt, knowledgeable assistance to our customers.
Radiology reports can be difficult to understand by both referring clinicians and patients alike. Diversified Radiology understands the difference that our reports can make in our patient’s lives. For this reason Diversified Radiology pioneered accessibility to our patients and providers when we decided as a group to put our phone number on the bottom of all of our reports. We have a human answering the phone 24/7 and radiologists are available to discuss any report we have constructed. Because of the forward thinking of Diversified Radiology – many other groups across the country have embraced this patient centric availability.
Our Radiologists
We are a team of top-tier radiologists dedicated to the utmost medical care by ensuring that each radiologist concentrates on their individual specialties for which they have pursued fellowship training. Diversified radiologists have representation of all radiology subspecialty fellowships to include: Neuroradiology, Body Imaging, Thoracic Imaging, Interventional, Pediatric, Breast Imaging, Nuclear Medicine and Musculoskeletal Imaging. Many of our radiologists have been published in leading medical journals. This differs from other groups that require their radiologists to interpret studies in which they do not have fellowship training. Diversified radiologists are dedicated to achieving and maintaining a standard of care that surpasses the expectations of its affiliates and patients.
History
Diversified Radiology of Colorado, Inc. was founded in 1927 by Dr. Kenneth D. A. Allen. Operating as Allen and Associates, and working out of Presbyterian Hospital in Denver, Dr. Allen established the cornerstone mission of the medical gr oup: Quality Patient Care—a commitment that remains resolutely a priority over these many decades.
Diversified Radiology is the result of merging three well known and respected radiology groups. In August of 1996, Diversified Radiology joined with Metropolitan Radiologists, and in 1997 merged with Western Radiologists. The resulting group, collectively known as Diversified Radiology of Colorado provides unprecedented specialty expertise across a large geographic area and is now one of the largest radiology practices in the Rocky Mountain Region.
Throughout its history, the practice adapted to and helped develop many of the technological advancements and practices that are commonplace in radiology today. While many things about the practice have changed over the years, including the name, physician leadership and diagnostic advancements, quality patient care remains as the focus.
Today, this mission is evident to the medical community and its patients through the delivery of true subspecialized care, around the clock. As a group of 65 subspecialty trained radiologists, Diversified Radiology continues to provide state-of-the-art diagnostic and interventional radiology services to an ever-expanding patient base.
Better Business Bureau Recognition
Exemplifying the highest standards of trust and integrity within the community, Diversified was recently recognized by the BBB Denver/Boulder. To be honored for this distinction demonstrates that Diversified Radiology’s values align with those of the BBB; that trust and integrity are the foundation of how a business should operate.
