A look back at the remarkable career of Ed Sloan Sr.

by Philip F. Jacobus, CEO | August 19, 2019

From the August 2019 issue of HealthCare Business News magazine

I remember he said in 2010, "Rick I think I'm ready for round two". And boy was it a great round two!

As a friend: Love him. I really enjoy my time with him. When we're drinking a totty and remembering the things we've done, the stories are great. I'm really glad to see him finally enjoying his time off. That's something I thought I'd never see. But it wouldn't surprise me if one day we hear, " Rick, I'm ready for round three."

Not just my view. He's the God Father of the used medical equipment and I've heard this from people all over the world and I've been with him on most of his adventures.

Congrats on the Lifetime Achievement Award and Thank you Ed! Those two words do not come close to how ReMedPar and you changed by life, not only for me personally but our industry as a whole. Who doesn’t love the story of ReMedPar and how it started? You put the parts industry on the map. The seven years I spent working with you has been a huge influence on my career and life.

I look back on some funny stories such as the “Priceline” trip you booked from California to Nashville that took 3 days. The walks around RSNA with you, which would take hours as everyone wanted to talk to Ed. There are so many fun memories and just great times wrapped up in those seven years. We worked hard but had lots and lots of fun.

A lot of where I am today goes back to things I learned from ReMedPar and you. In all of your endeavors, you have never lost your entrepreneurial spirit and I am thankful for the insight and wisdom I have learned from having had the privilege to learn and work alongside you, Mr. Sloan.

I want to thank you and “Home” Wanda for treating me as part of your family, which I am. I can honestly say one of the memories I cherish and miss the most are the morning chats we would have about life over coffee.

Congrats ED!

I have known Ed since the mid 80's and my hospital career. Ed was a legend in Nashville in the radiology space. As I transitioned to working with a radiology group and due to the high costs of using OEM's, our practice began working with Ed. He was known for always coming through getting our equipment operational and finding parts when the OEM's could not. Over the years, Ed became my exclusive seller and service company of used equipment. There is no one I respect more and value their opinion on equipment than Ed Sloan.
