For over two decades, I’ve been working with physicians, physician groups, and medical businesses for over twenty years, helping them define and develop pathways to success. I’ve provided healthcare consulting services to established doctors and surgeons, physician led companies and groups, and residents and fellows. We’ve worked together on matters ranging from doctor practice startups, physician recruiting and retention, short and long term strategic planning, hospital negotiations, staffing and operations to practice valuations and evaluations, as well as healthcare practice mergers and acquisitions.
 
When I began my consulting business, private practice was the dominant model for physicians. Although the business of medicine is always in flux, I remain a believer in private practice and its viability, and the importance of entrepreneurial physicians to the success of healthcare and the care of patients. To define my business approach, it’s distinctly “physician-centric” and solutions oriented.​

I also work with residents, fellows, and nurse practitioners. As they transition from their academic programs to the physician recruitment environment I am working with them to make sure that they are empowered with the tools necessary ​to evaluate all aspects of their employment opportunities before they take the important first step to become active participants in today’s ever-changing healthcare environment.
