626 Adds to Leadership Team

626 Holdings LLC has announced the addition of Dale Hockel Jr. as chief operating officer (COO) and Cary Lucian as chief commercial officer (CCO).

“At each inflection point of our business we have added key players to help us level up. At this point in our corporate life cycle, it is especially important to add people whose experiences are different than our own, but who fit our culture. It is important to add players who have proven themselves in fast growth environments and who have done so through organic and acquisition growth. It is also nice when they both know and love the industry we thrive in. If we want to grow even faster and acquire even more compatible organizations, we need additional leadership muscle. I am confident we have added two solid executives in Dale Hockel Jr. as our COO and Cary Lucian as our CCO,” stated Philip Revien, CEO of 626.

“I am thrilled to be joining Phil and the 626 team to be part of one of the largest imaging service organizations in health care. The entire team at 626 is laser focused on ensuring the customer is taken care of. It is great be part of a team that is dedicated to taking care of employees and the customers they serve” Hockel said.

“The market opportunity for 626 is now. Health care organizations continue to face financial challenges and we are poised to deliver a high-value, high-quality service to our customers. I’m excited about the opportunity to be part of a team that shares a commitment to customer service and to putting patients first,” Lucian said.

Hockel was most recently COO at Dental Care Alliance (DCA). DCA partnered with more than 775 dentists across 22 states. Dale was instrumental in creating a scalable operational infrastructure and the processes to support DCA’s rapid growth. Prior to DCA, he was a key player in the HTM space. He was COO at Alliance HealthCare (now part of Akumin) and before that he was senior vice president of operations at Trimedx.

Lucian brings over 30 years of proven experience in medical imaging sales, service, operations, business development and management. He spent 19 years at GE Healthcare in a variety of leadership roles. After GE he joined the multi-vendor ISO Radiographic Equipment Services (RES) as a principal and grew the business until it was purchased by Agiliti. At Agiliti, he was the national senior vice president for imaging and business development.

626 was founded in 2012 and is a leading provider of imaging equipment services, focused on providing responsive service to outpatient imaging centers, hospitals and other independent service organizations.
