MEDNAX, Inc. (NYSE:MD), today announced that Karl Wagner, President of the Company’s Eastern Division, has indicated his intent
to resign from the company, in order to pursue personal opportunities. Mr. Wagner, who joined MEDNAX in 1997 and previously served

“I want to thank Karl for all the contributions he has made to MEDNAX over the last nineteen years,” said Roger J. Medel, M.D.,

growth, strategic evolution, and success we have achieved as an organization.”

pursue,” said Mr. Wagner. “I have the highest confidence in the ability of my associates and friends at MEDNAX to execute on the
strategy we have undertaken. I also believe the Company’s focus on improving the care of our patients while bringing solutions to
our partners is exactly the right plan. I will always take with me the wonderful stories of how we have impacted an untold number
of families both from the contributions of the organization as a whole or the individual care provided by our clinicians.”
