Local Infusion Expands Footprint with Acquisition of Carolina Neurology
The deal strengthens Local Infusion’s position in the rapidly growing outpatient infusion market, offering a strategic base for regional development in South Carolina.
Local Infusion has acquired Carolina Neurology of Spartanburg, South Carolina, through a transaction brokered by Tinsley Medical Practice Brokers. The acquisition positions Local Infusion to capitalize on the increasing demand for specialized infusion services, particularly in a state where access to private, non-hospital centers remains limited.
Carolina Neurology, which generates $15.6 million in annual revenue, serves a three-county region in upstate South Carolina. The company’s infusion center is expected to provide Local Infusion with a strong foundation for expansion within the region.
The national infusion market is currently experiencing significant growth, forecast to increase at an annual rate of 8%–9%. This surge is largely driven by the rising need for treatments related to multiple sclerosis (MS), specialty biologics, neurology infusions, autoimmune conditions, and migraine management.
Local Infusion differentiates itself through a patient-centric operational model. This includes transparent pricing structures, streamlined digital onboarding processes, private treatment suites, and a focus on reducing infusion treatment costs by 40%–60% per claim compared to traditional hospital settings.
“Sean Tinsley and the team at Tinsley Medical Practice Brokers were instrumental in ensuring a smooth and efficient transition of ownership,” said a physician and owner of Carolina Neurology. “From our initial consultation to the final transaction, their professionalism and expertise made the process seamless. I highly recommend their services to any physician looking to sell their practice.”
The scale of this transaction underscores the strategic importance of Local Infusion’s entry into the South Carolina market. The company’s expansion strategy centers on improving access to affordable and modern infusion care, supporting physicians with integrated digital systems and a hospitality-focused approach.
