About SDI
SDI Diagnostic Imaging is a
physician practice dedicated to providing quality healthcare
imaging services in the Tampa Bay area since 1967.
Founded by radiologists Dr. Charles Stern, Dr. George
Drake, and Dr. Robert Isbell, at St. Joseph's Hospital, the
group of Stern, Drake, Isbell, and Associates, PA, or SDI Radiology, has
grown over the years to 17 radiologists and two physician
assistants, with a support staff, management team and a
billing service. In 2003 we changed
our name to SDI Diagnostic Imaging.
SDI has grown in response to increasing service
needs. Over the years, St. Joseph's Hospital has expanded to
include a separate women's hospital and one for exclusively for
children. We have seen the Emergency Room services substantially
expand and include Bayflight helicopter ambulance service. St.
Joseph's has also added outpatient diagnostic centers over the years.
For many years we owned and operated our first imaging
center, Town and Country Diagnostic Center.
The development of our own imaging centers has continued with the
opening of SDI
Diagnostic Imaging in Oldsmar in 2000 and SDI Diagnostic Imaging in
South Tampa in 2003. These centers provide high quality Open Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Mammography, Bone Densitometry,
Helical Computerized Tomography (CT), Fluoroscopy,
Ultrasound, and general X-rays.
Our professional interpretation services have also expanded through the
development of teleradiology, which allows us to receive full-quality
digital images from remote locations at high speeds. In addition
to providing 24hr in-house coverage at St. Joseph's Hospital, we now
provide overnight emergency radiology services to several other
hospitals in the state and provide daytime coverage of MRI and other
imaging services to remote sites. Teleradiology also allows us to
consult with our subspecialist experts from any of our several
locations.
Our board-certified fellowship-trained
physicians continue to practice at St. Joseph's Hospital and its
associated imaging centers, as well as St. Joseph's Women's
Hospital, and St. Joseph's Children's Hospital of Tampa. With subspecialty expertise in Musculoskeletal
Radiology, Neuroradiology, Pediatric Radiology, Vascular and
Interventional Radiology, Neurointerventional Radiology, Nuclear
Medicine, and Women's Imaging, SDI provides a full range of
diagnostic and interventional services.
