Dermatologists of Southwest Ohio Retirement Savings Plan

Investment governance appears closely held by the leadership of DOCS Dermatology, the affiliated clinical group. John Macke, CEO of DOCS Dermatology and former Practice Administrator of Dermatologists of Southwest Ohio, is a key named principal in the entity's structure. The plan likely operates under the direction of the founding physician-partners, Dr. Stephen Levitt and Dr. Thomas Olsen.

The plan holds direct ownership of at least five medical office properties in Ohio, located in West Chester, Troy, Beavercreek, Mason, and Avon. Additionally, it owns specialized medical equipment, including a Candela SPTL-14 laser in Dayton. This direct ownership of operating assets is atypical for most pension funds.

As a private-sector retirement savings plan associated with a specific medical practice, participation is likely limited to physicians and employees of Dermatologists of Southwest Ohio and its affiliated entity, DOCS Dermatology. It does not appear to operate as a multi-employer or public plan.

The plan owns the commercial condominiums and medical office buildings from which the dermatology practice operates. This suggests a leaseback model where the medical practice pays rent to the retirement plan, creating a direct, predictable income stream for plan participants while giving the practice operational control over its facilities.

DOCS Dermatology is the clinical operating entity led by CEO John Macke, with Dr. Michael Conroy as Chief Medical Officer. The retirement plan is the pension vehicle for that practice. The two share management and have interconnected assets, with the plan owning the real estate where DOCS Dermatology provides clinical care.
