In September, 2025 Birmingham Radiological Group launched their Vascular & Interventional Specialists of America (VISA) spinoff venture. The location address given is 3570 Grandview Parkway Suite 100 Birmingham Alabama. It is very close to the Grand View Medical Center Hospital off Highway 280.

After a relatively quiet launch, 2026 saw a major branding push in this company and in May there was a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony.

VISA mentions at the bottom of their website they are affiliated with aXisPoint Radiology, a new group based out of Birmingham. Curiously, a look at this roster turns up many names who also work with BRG.

Interestingly, an MRI diagnostic facility (American Health Imaging / AHI), I also had negative dealings with (there, radiologist Angus Baird MD failed to acknowledge broken skull bone and a several inches diameter mass that showed up in the same area as broken bone on the underside of my skull in CT images) is located in the exact same building! American Health Imaging worked with BRG in some capacity in the past although the specifics are not clear. BRG CEO Doyle Stewart told me in a 2022 recorded telephone call they didn't work with AHI any longer although as of 2025 a webpage is still live on the BRG site showing their MD's listed as working with the outfit.

In December, 2024 American Health Imaging, Inc. (“AHI”) and its former founder and CEO, Scott Arant, entered into an understanding with the U.S. Federal government & The State Of Georgia to pay a settlement of $5,250,000 to resolve kickback allegations that they violated the False Claims Act.

3 member doctors of BRG (Julian Patrick Druhan MD, Angus Baird MD and Donald Shane Kelly MD), radiologists, misdiagnosed medical image scans (X-Rays, CT Scans & MRI I had done between 2018-2019 at Saint Vincent's East Hospital (Ascension) & American Health Imaging). I went into the emergency room and to doctors believing I had broken my neck or skull. The doctors took these scans and typed up in official records I had no injury. I obtained the images and written records later and found in them I had broken the basilar area of my skull & several inches diameter of infection.

-I filed complaints against each doctor in 2021 (dismissed and thrown out unfairly by the Alabama Board Of Medical Examiners).
-Attempted to contact the medical practices who refused to put me in touch with the doctors or correct the errors. (Meanwhile I had medical bills worth thousands stacking up from these same visits and the erroneous readings).
-Called BRG CEO Doyle Stewart in a recorded call you can hear in my videos. Told me he could not help me and would not give me the contact information to speak to the offending MD's personally.
-They play major phone games at BRG and use trick voices etc. Becky Burgess who answered the phone in one call was extremely rude and told me I had the wrong number when I wanted to talk to someone about my Angus Baird MD scan for AHI.

00:00All right, some turf realignment to report, and a few months back, we told you how Birmingham, Alabama-based Vascular
00:09and Interventional Specialists of America had their grand opening.
00:14Their location is just off Highway 280 at 3570 Grandview Parkway, Suite 100.
00:22The official website lists the group as the interventional radiology arm of Birmingham Radiological Group.
00:31I've had some experience with these doctors in the past.
00:35You can see many hours' documentation on that in my other videos.
00:41So when it comes to listing the radiologists, Visavascular users, they did something kind of sneaky here.
00:51At the bottom of their website, there's this item.
00:55It reads, Affiliated with Access Point Radiology.
01:00You'll see here is a brand new group of radiological physicians.
01:07However, if you look at the roster of doctors here, there are many names also affiliated with Birmingham Radiological Group.
01:20The LLC for Access Point is registered in the name of Dr. Maximilian Pico, a BRG doctor based out of
01:31Grandview Medical Center.
01:33This development may be indicative of some major change afoot within Birmingham Radiological Group itself.
01:42I know based on my experience that the BRG doctors are not trustworthy or honorable.
01:50Yeah, you can look around the internet.
01:53Customer reviews, on the whole, not very good.
01:57Alabama-based Birmingham Radiological Group.
02:01They claim to have 45 radiologists on the payroll and are composed of doctors that examine MRI, X-rays, and
02:09CT imagery.
02:11Many doctors and medical practices in the Birmingham area rely on their services.
02:16And you may be surprised if you went to see a doctor and had an MRI, CT, or X-ray
02:22in the Birmingham area.
02:23A BRG, Birmingham Radiological Group doctor, may have examined your images.
02:29And you may not be aware of it until later.
02:32I was a customer and patient of Birmingham Radiological Group in 2018 and 2019.
02:38I had three of their doctors look at MRI, CT, and X-ray of a major injury that I had
02:45in my head.
02:46I almost died from this.
02:48These doctors wrote in their reports that I had no injury present.
02:51I knew otherwise.
02:53Went and got the pictures.
02:54I'll put the pictures up here yet again.
02:56And what is clearly visible at this time when I was being told these falsehoods was that around six inches
03:05in diameter of infection appears inside my head.
03:09I'd actually broken my skull in the basilar area in the region of the occipital condyle and condular canal.
03:15My issues are unresolved outstanding as it relates to Birmingham Radiological Group doctors, Angus Baird, MD, Julian Patrick Druhan, MD,
03:27and Donald Shane Kelly, MD.
03:29I called the CEO, Doyle Stewart, and he told me in a recorded phone call that he was not going
03:34to help me get my own images looked at again or to correct the errors of their doctor.
