You Built a Successful Practice. Let Vye Health Help You Make It Even Better.
Running a concierge, membership-based, obesity medicine, or metabolic health practice can be incredibly rewarding.
It can also mean carrying the weight of the entire business yourself.
Vye Health partners with experienced physicians and nurse practitioners who want to strengthen, grow, and simplify the practices they have already built without giving up the clinical autonomy or patient relationships that made the practice successful in the first place.
Our team brings more than 15 years of experience in concierge and membership-based medicine and provides the operating infrastructure behind your practice, including:
- Practice operations and day-to-day support
- Membership billing and revenue cycle management
- Patient enrollment, communication, and retention
- Marketing and membership growth
- Staffing and workflow optimization
- Technology and AI-enabled practice infrastructure
- Credentialing and payer support
- Financial and membership strategy
- Labs, medications, referrals, scheduling, and telehealth workflows
- Long-term practice growth and sustainability
For physicians practicing obesity medicine, metabolic health, primary care, women's health, endocrinology, prevention, longevity, or integrative medicine, Vye can help create the infrastructure needed to deliver highly personalized, longitudinal care without having to operate every part of the business yourself.
Whether you want to grow your patient panel, improve practice economics, reduce administrative burden, modernize your infrastructure, or simply have an experienced team behind you, we can meet you where you are.
You focus on your patients. We help build and operate the practice around you.
Thinking About What Comes Next?
If retirement, succession, or gradually stepping back from clinical practice is beginning to enter the conversation, Vye Health can also help you explore a thoughtful transition strategy.
You have spent years building your practice and earning the trust of your patients. We can work with you to create a path that prioritizes:
- Continuity of care for your patients
- Preservation of the relationships you have built
- A thoughtful transition of your practice
- Protecting the value and legacy of what you created
Your practice. Your patients. Your legacy.
Interested in Exploring What Vye Could Do for Your Practice?
We would love to speak with established physicians and nurse practitioners who are considering the next stage of their practice — whether that means growth, greater operational support, or succession planning.
Please send your résumé/CV and a brief note about your current practice and what you are looking to achieve to drsuruchikothari@vyehealth.com.
All conversations will be treated confidentially.
