Drew is the Chief Growth Officer; in this role, Drew brings that “little something extra,” or the Lagniappe, as the driving force behind Premier’s strategy and culture. He is committed to providing his clients with the most comprehensive and seamless customer experience available. On any given day, he can be overheard in the office saying, “Don’t forget that every single patient is someone’s mother, brother, father, or sister.” Drew is diligent in his work, coupled with the highest level of integrity. He empowers those who work alongside him and helps guide them with one goal in mind: patients always come first.
After working in the diagnostic radiology business for several years, Drew felt something was missing from the industry. This void—along with his genuine love for making connections with people, as well as his compassion for others—led to his co-founding of Premier Radiology Services in 2006.
Drew’s greatest accomplishment in life is his family. He and his wife, Michelle, have three beautiful children: Noah, Chloe, and Ava. Drew and his family are driven by their mantra: work hard, play hard. They enjoy traveling and discovering new and interesting places around the globe. According to Drew and Michelle, there is nothing better than seeing the world through the eyes of their children.

Jonathan S. Luchs, MD FACR, is the Chief Medical Officer of Premier Radiology Services. Dr. Luchs brought his experience in the Radiology business and his expertise in Musculoskeletal Radiology to quickly climb the ranks to become a Partner. He also promotes the Premier Radiology mission by serving as the physician liaison to the marketing and business development team.

Dr. Luchs has since left the academic world to pursue his career in the private sector and dedicate his time to patient care and business development (but he has not stopped lecturing!). He is still invited to national medical conferences such as the American Roentgen Ray society to lecture and is still an active member in organized Radiology (he holds a leadership position for the Society of Skeletal Radiology).
One of Dr. Luch’s interests in the field of Musculoskeletal Radiology is Musculoskeletal Ultrasound. He trained as a fellow at the prestigious Hospital for Special Surgery in NY, NY. While there, his training included all modalities of musculoskeletal/orthopedic/spine images and Musculoskeletal Ultrasound. He brought his talent and knowledge of Musculoskeletal Imaging and Musculoskeletal Ultrasound to the medical community and helped bring it to the national stage with his research and teachings. He taught Musculoskeletal Ultrasound at a local ultrasound technologist school for several years and was an Instructor at the Society of Skeletal Radiology Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Course.
Dr. Luchs has received several awards/honors throughout his career, including being granted the position of Oral Board Examiner for the American Board of Radiology and receiving a Certificate of Merit from the Radiological Society of North America. However, the one he is most proud of is Fellowship in the American College of Radiology. This Fellowship is an honor less than 10% of all radiologists throughout the country will ever be offered throughout their career.
