Unveiling the Heart of Kure: A Journey into Healthcare Consulting Excellence
Let’s dive in:
Q: What inspired us to start Kure, and how does our background contribute to the vision of positively impacting patient care?
A: Katie: Our journey with Kure began when we started receiving numerous requests from healthcare partners seeking our expertise in guiding their business strategy and growth. The overwhelming demand highlighted a significant gap in the market that inspired us to launch Kure. Our combined backgrounds and skills laid the foundation for our vision of positively impacting patient care through innovative solutions.
Even more so, Medscape recently released its 2024 Physician Burnout & Depression Report, with the data showing that both burnout and depression remain relatively high despite slight decreases from last year with overall, 49% of physicians saying they were burned out. This resonates deeply with Lisa and I – something we’ve seen even more so post-pandemic. We really feel our deep connections to our clients and identifying stressors early on in our discussions, alleviates some of these burdens allowing our clients to focus more on their own health and their patients.
Q: Kure specializes in talent, marketing, and growth solutions within the healthcare industry. What led us to identify these areas as crucial for private practices to achieve operational and financial success?
A: Katie: At Kure, we specialize in talent, marketing, and growth solutions within the healthcare industry. Our focus on these areas stems from recognizing their crucial role in helping private practices achieve operational and financial success. From building a strong brand through marketing to assembling a talented team and driving growth, these elements are interconnected and form the core of our expertise.
Q: Our clients speak highly of Kure’s services, particularly in terms of successful recruitment and understanding the intersection of patient care and operational excellence. How do we ensure that Kure consistently delivers on these promises?
A: Lisa: Our clients’ testimonials speak volumes about the effectiveness of Kure’s services, particularly in successful recruitment and understanding the intersection of patient care and operational excellence. We ensure consistent delivery of our promises by staying true to our values, always going above and beyond for our clients, and delivering exceptional results with every project we undertake.
Q: As founders, what leadership principles guide our decisions and interactions within Kure, especially in fostering a collaborative environment with providers, founders, private equity, and leadership teams?
A: Lisa: As founders, our leadership principles guide every decision and interaction within Kure. We lead with humility, integrity, purpose, and a partner-centric approach. Fostering a collaborative environment with providers, founders, private equity partners, and leadership teams is integral to our success, and we prioritize open communication and transparency in all our dealings.

Q: The healthcare landscape is constantly evolving. How does Kure adapt to changes in regulations, technology, and market dynamics to continue providing relevant and effective solutions to its clients?
A: Katie: The healthcare landscape is constantly evolving, and at Kure, we embrace change with a proactive and flexible approach. We stay ahead of regulations, technological advancements, and market dynamics by continuously learning, engaging with our extensive network, and leveraging valuable resources and knowledge to provide relevant and effective solutions to our clients.
Q: Given the importance of attracting and retaining talent in the medical field, how does Kure approach talent acquisition differently from traditional recruiting agencies, and what strategies do you employ to ensure the right fit for your clients?
A: Lisa: Talent acquisition is a critical aspect of success in the medical field, and at Kure, we approach it differently from traditional recruiting agencies. We understand that every client has unique needs, so we tailor our approach and customize a plan that works specifically for them. Our strategies, which include leveraging technology, utilizing multiple sourcing channels, and employing intuitive methods, ensure the right fit for our clients’ practices.
Q: Kure emphasizes the importance of understanding clients’ needs and pain points. Can you share an example of how Kure tailored its services to address a specific client challenge and the resulting impact on their practice?
A: Lisa: At Kure, understanding our client’s needs and pain points is paramount. One example of how we tailored our services to address a specific client challenge involved a busy Dermatology Office that lacked the bandwidth to fill high-level roles. Through our full-cycle recruiting process, we were able to efficiently fill the positions, resulting in continued retention and success for the practice.
Q: Kure shares valuable insights on topics like online reviews, staffing challenges, and financial resolutions for medical group leaders. How do you stay informed about industry trends and ensure that Kure remains a thought leader in the healthcare consulting space?
A: Katie: Staying informed about industry trends is crucial for Kure to remain a thought leader in the healthcare consulting space. We are passionate about continuously learning and engaging with our extensive network to gather valuable insights and share them with our clients. By providing industry insights on topics like online reviews, staffing challenges, and financial resolutions, we aim to empower our clients to navigate the ever-evolving healthcare landscape effectively.
Q: Looking ahead, what are your aspirations for Kure in terms of growth, expanding service offerings, and furthering its impact on patient care and practice success?
A: Lisa: Looking ahead, our aspirations for Kure are limitless. Our current focus is on delivering the best service possible that highly impacts patient care and financial success.
