Two threads, both documented
First: SimonMed's own record — a state Attorney General billing settlement, a large 2025 patient-data breach and the litigation that followed, and a consistent pattern in public complaints. Second: its ownership. SimonMed was acquired by American Securities, a New York private-equity firm whose healthcare holdings have also included Aspen Dental — a company with its own documented regulatory history. This site keeps those two threads sourced and separate from opinion.

Legal & regulatory actions
Same owner, similar questions?
American Securities acquired SimonMed in 2021. The same firm has held a stake in Aspen Dental, which has settled multiple state Attorney General actions over its billing, advertising, and corporate control of clinical practice. The parallel is documented — and stated precisely, ownership stakes and all.
The ownership file
If your doctor is sending you to SimonMed, it's fair to ask why — and to consider a second opinion on where you get scanned.
