About me

If we can fix healthcare, we can fix the world.

I'm a primary-care physician who became a product executive, building places worth getting care from my entire career. A thousand iterations later, I keep seeing the same problems wearing different costumes — and the fixes work more often than they should.

Work with me

When you need a partner in it with you.

I'm an advisor to healthtech CEOs, operators, and investors. I've spent fifteen years building, scaling, and fixing healthcare companies — and the same problems keep recurring. Here's what that looks like.

56 OKRs for 62 people.
Took over as CPO. Day nine, cut them to four. First quarter the company ever hit its goals.
Physical to virtual in five weeks.
Built a primary care model over a decade — clinical design, training, technology. When COVID hit, we pivoted delivery nationwide in five weeks, because the system was built to improve.
Fourteen pitches, no framework.
CEO had a build-vs-buy problem disguised as a vendor selection. We built the decision framework first, then evaluated — on their terms, not what the vendors were selling.
The call nobody else can take.
First-time firings. Co-founder breakups. Whether to shut down. Board meetings you're dreading. The moments where you need someone who's been there, on short notice, who'll leave you with a plan.

Sometimes it's one conversation. Sometimes it turns into ongoing advisory. Let's start with thirty minutes and see where it goes.

"Andrew has been with me on everything — from regulatory strategy to coaching my senior team to communications I couldn't get wrong. What makes him different is I can call him with five minutes' notice, good news or bad, and hang up with a plan. He's saved me weeks of figuring it out alone."
