BackTable Urology · Ep. 315 Private Equity's Impact on Urology Practices with Dr. Benjamin Lowentritt · 10 Jul 2026 podcast

A, it's probably illegal in most states, but more importantly, it's just not sustainable, right?

We wouldn't have doctors who are happy to go to work if they feel like they're constantly having that over their shoulder.

understanding that what you're building is this kind of management team and this management organization to help whatever it may be that the practices need is really what's being discussed here.

And then it's the decision of each practice, whether they really want to partner with that management organization more so than partnering with the private equity company.

Well, I mean, I think ours is an example of another option, which is we're no longer with our management company.

Our course went where United Urology was eventually acquired by a larger management services organization called One Oncology.

So we now have a urology kind of team and arm of a broader organization that's first focus was on medical oncology.

So now they have medical oncology and urology.

They were at the time that they acquired us or the management team, they were.

also partnered with private equity.

But since that time, we now are all owned by a public company, by, you know, Sincora, which is a big distributor, right?

I think people are more familiar with the U.S.

oncology model, which has long, you know, has been owned by McKesson, which is another distributor.

So, and they continue to operate separate from that other core business, right?

I think for many of us, and this is where that definition of independence comes from, is that

This is where it's hard for me to stay unbiased in anything that I'm saying, but these companies don't pretend that they know how to practice medicine.

And I would argue that payers think they can practice medicine and hospital executives think they can practice medicine, whether they're MDs or not, right?

And so they oftentimes really get into that more of that direct management of patient care.

And that's what we want independence from.

Right.
