Our Evolution
Specialty Medical Equipment was co-founded by Jeffrey A. Goldshine, BS, LNHA, and Douglas B. Noble, ESQ. in 2001.

The principals have over 50 years of healthcare experience focused on development, management and operations here in New England.

Most recently, the partners were principle share holders of Commonwealth Communities ("CC"), a MA- based healthcare operator of chronic hospitals, skilled nursing facilities and assisted living residences. Over it's thirteen year existence, Commonwealth Communities was recognized as a leading provider of these services in MA. On February 28, 2006, CC's hospitals, nursing homes and ALF's were acquired by Kindred, a national public healthcare organization.
