History

Founded 1917. Oldest continuously operating radiology group in North Carolina. 60 radiologists across 8 hospitals and 16 imaging centers in Charlotte metro. Member of Strategic Radiology. Practice is actively growing (described as "expanding" in Feb 2026 job listing). Charlotte is one of the fastest-growing cities in the US, driving imaging volume growth. IMPORTANT: Distinct from Charlotte Radiology (also in database), which is Lumexa-affiliated — two separate major radiology employers in Charlotte. UPDATE (2025–2026): • IndependentRadiology.com job listing Feb 2026: 60 radiologists "and growing." • Covers 8 hospitals and 16 imaging centers in Charlotte metro — largest hospital footprint is Atrium Health (CHS-Atrium) + Novant Health. • NOTE: MRA is completely distinct from Charlotte Radiology (which is the Lumexa co-founder). Both are Charlotte-based independent groups serving different hospital systems. • MRA covers primarily Atrium/Novant-affiliated hospitals; Charlotte Radiology covers Atrium Health hospitals (overlap, but different contracts). • MRA is "fiercely independent" per job listing — explicitly states no PE affiliation.
