Fort Worth, TX (October 14, 2022) – U.S. Specialists Management (USSM) is pleased to announce a partnership with Urology of St. Louis (USL), one of the largest independent urology practices in the Midwest.

USL was established in January 2019 through the merger of two of the region’s most respected urologic practices—St. Louis Urological Surgeons and Urology Consultants. This unification reflected a shared mission to “be the solution” for comprehensive urologic care across the St. Louis metropolitan area. Today, USL consists of 25 board-certified urologists, 5 advanced practice providers, and 2 radiation oncologists, supported by a dedicated team of medical professionals.

“Partnering with Urology of St. Louis represents a significant step forward in our mission to empower leading physician groups while preserving their independence,” said Bob Yonke, CEO of U.S. Specialists Management. “USL exemplifies clinical excellence and patient-centered care—values that align seamlessly with our Physician Equity™ model.”

The collaboration reflects USSM’s continued growth and its commitment to partnering with physician-led organizations nationwide. USSM played an essential role in facilitating the merger of USL’s legacy groups and supporting their long-term operational and strategic goals.

“As we continue to expand our national footprint, we remain focused on creating long-term partnerships based on trust, innovation, and aligned purpose,” Yonke added. “Our model is about keeping physicians at the center of healthcare—where they belong.”

USL’s leadership echoed the excitement about this new chapter.

“This partnership with USSM strengthens our ability to deliver high-quality, cost-effective urologic care while remaining fully physician-led,” said Dr. Matt Spellman, President of Urology of St. Louis. “USSM’s support allows us to focus even more on what we do best—caring for our patients.”

“We knew from the beginning that USSM shared our core values,” Spellman continued. “They bring the resources and expertise to help us grow, but with a commitment to preserving the autonomy and clinical standards that matter most to us and our patients.”
