Why We Started Clinic Accelerator

We started our business in 1999, and before we knew it, we had thousands of employees across a bunch of clinics. Along the way, we made lots of expensive mistakes due to bad tactics and leadership. We even hired coaches just like the textbooks tell you, but they didn’t understand our industry and couldn’t relate. Many of their business tactics simply destroyed the business and clinic culture.

Why waste 10 years of your life and millions of dollars trying to figure it out yourself? That’s why we created Clinic Accelerator. We want to help healthcare professionals avoid the same costly mistakes we made and fast-track their CEO journey.
