AirMed acquires Texan critical care transport operator

Birmingham, Alabama, USA-based AirMed International has acquired San Antonio-based Air Medical, the largest fixed wing air medical transport company in Texas.

Air Medical's fleet of three jets and two King Air turboprops, equipped for critical care transport, is located at San Antonio International airport and will be consolidated into AirMed International's brand. “This acquisition will allow AirMed International to serve growing requirements for critical care transport as we meet the needs of healthcare in the Texas region and enhance support for area military medical transports,” says AirMed president Denise Treadwell.

“The compassionate, dedicated and experienced Air Medical team that chairman Joe McCart has built is quite compatible with our professional medical and flight teams.”
