Fairfax Radiological Consultants, PC

What Fairfax Radiological Consultants, PC does

Fairfax Radiological Consultants, PC (operating as Fairfax Radiology Centers, LLC) is a private, physician-led subspecialty radiology practice founded in 1965 and headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia. It is the largest outpatient radiology practice in the DC Metro area, employing 600+ staff including 90+ subspecialized, fellowship-trained radiologists, and operates 20+ outpatient imaging centers spanning Fairfax, Centreville, Woodbridge, Herndon, Springfield, Annandale, Arlington, Alexandria, and Lansdowne. The practice's breast imaging program reads over 120,000 mammograms per year and holds ACR Breast Imaging Center of Excellence designation across mammography, breast ultrasound, and image-guided biopsy modalities.

The service portfolio spans the full diagnostic imaging stack: screening and diagnostic mammography (including 3D tomosynthesis and abbreviated breast MRI), low-dose CT (body CT, coronary CTA, calcium scoring, lung screening LDCT, CT virtual colonoscopy, HeartFlow Analysis), high-speed MRI including 3T MRI and specialized exams (cardiac MRI, fetal MRI, prostate MRI, MR elastography, MR neurography), ultrasound, PET/CT, nuclear medicine, DXA bone density, pediatric imaging, neurointerventional radiology, and vascular and interventional procedures including vein treatments and pain management. The practice differentiates on subspecialization — radiologists read only within their fellowship-trained subspecialty — and on the only-in-region availability of board-certified pediatric radiologists in a private practice setting. Hospital affiliations include the Inova Hospital System, formalized through a 2020 joint venture with Inova Radiology Imaging Associates (RIA).

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service imaging billed primarily to insurance (Medicare, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare) and to patients directly. The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer (online self-scheduling via OpenDR, walk-in X-ray, extended hours) reinforced by physician referrals and regional brand-building through earned media, content marketing, and social channels. The practice invests in continuous equipment refresh (3T MRI, low-dose CT, advanced ultrasound), physical expansion (Springfield relocation Oct 2024, Reston-Herndon opening Nov 2023, Lansdowne under construction), and subspecialty physician recruitment (15+ new radiologists added in 2025-2026 across interventional, breast, body, and musculoskeletal imaging). No external private equity or venture capital ownership has been disclosed.

Direct peers

• Radiology Partners: Physician-led radiology practice scaled via private-equity-backed rollups across the US. Highly comparable as a subspecialized, multi-site outpatient radiology group with similar physician partnership structure, though it operates nationally rather than regionally.
• RAYUS Radiology: Network of subspecialized outpatient imaging centers offering MRI, CT, mammography, and image-guided procedures. Comparable in modality mix and subspecialist-led model, with a multi-state footprint.
• US Radiology Specialists: Private-equity-backed radiology group combining hospital contracts and outpatient centers with subspecialized reads. Comparable physician partnership and outpatient growth strategy.
• Center for Diagnostic Imaging (CDI): Outpatient imaging network offering MRI, CT, mammography, and interventional procedures across multiple US regions. Comparable outpatient subspecialty imaging platform.
• Envision Radiology: Outpatient radiology group offering diagnostic and interventional imaging across multiple states. Comparable modality mix including MRI, CT, mammography, and image-guided procedures.
