Hollie Zimmerman
Radiation Safety and Regulatory Compliance Coordinator / Crouse Hospital / Syracuse NY

Our hospital switched to UMP Physics years ago and it was one of the best things we could have done! I’m so happy with the completeness of their service. From answered phone calls and emails anytime, to very thorough physics testing on all equipment they provide the full package. The initial audits in Nuclear Medicine revealed we needed help and they provided it start to finish! They are very knowledgeable in all areas and a great resource to use for tough or unusual questions/situations. Medical Imaging is an area with a lot of regulations and is ever evolving and I feel UMP Physics is the best option to keep up with the current and future environment of these changes. I have confidence now in our program and our daily practices.
