Why is our practice unique? ARS is a 100% physician owned and managed practice. We are committed to remaining independent. We are looking for entrepreneurial minded physicians who value involvement in decision making and developing our business strategy.

In affiliation with Michigan State University College of Medicine, our radiologists have opportunities to teach and mentor residents and pursue research if desired. Due to the size and breadth of the healthcare systems we support, diagnostic volume and variety of clinical exposure is unrivaled.
Compensation/Benefits: Our physicians pay nothing for medical/dental/vision coverage. We also contribute the maximum amount allowed to the 401K plan. We offer a generous vacation package and abundant opportunities to pick up additional shifts and increase compensation. We are continually striving to improve the work/life balance for our physicians.
