American Oncology Network Expands in Maryland, Welcomes New Practice to Its Network

EASTON, Md., Feb. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Oncology Network (AON) (Nasdaq: AONC), one of the nation’s fastest-growing community oncology networks, is pleased to welcome Bay Hematology Oncology to its expanding network of practices.

Bay Hematology Oncology includes a team of accomplished Board-certified physicians David Smith, MD; Muhammad Siddique, MD; and Pamela Simpson, MD; and a dedicated care staff of four advanced practitioners who are experienced in treating an array of blood disorders and cancer-related diseases. The practice currently has two clinic locations: one in Easton and the other in Centreville.

“Our goal is to provide the latest and advanced therapies to our patients and deliver continuous support and resources to them and their loved ones throughout the journey,” said Dr. Smith, medical oncologist at Bay Hematology Oncology. “AON is a nationwide leader and provider that offers practices like ours an integrated care model, and through this partnership with AON, we can position ourselves to improve our care services to ensure that our patients receive the best possible therapies for their diagnoses. Additionally, AON’s ingrained patient-first mentality aligns with our practice’s care approach, and the company’s focus on ensuring the success of community oncology practices like ours is instrumental as we continue forward within the ever-changing healthcare landscape. We are dedicated to our patients and commit to delivering the best available care and therapies for their diseases, and joining AON will help us with this ongoing mission.”

The practice’s esteemed reputation for excellence and patient-first care approach aligns with our own, and we are confident that this partnership will be a positive development for patients and the community.”

In addition to the current patient services offered, as part of the AON partnership, Bay Hematology Oncology’s two clinics will offer additional patient resources. Such resources include in-house pathology services, enhanced in-house specialty pharmacy for oral oncolytic medication and care coordination for patients among other benefits. Patients can continue to expect the same high level of care provided by the physicians and care team.

“Community practices of all specialties are the heart of healthcare and beneficial to patients in all communities by keeping care and services accessible and affordable,” said Todd Schonherz, AON’s chief executive officer. “At AON, we strive to ensure practices like Bay Hematology Oncology have the equipment, support and resources to deliver care within the communities they serve. It is always an honor to welcome a new practice to our network. On behalf of AON, welcome Bay Hematology Oncology.”
