Expert consulting that strengthens surgical and anesthesia services

Sullivan Healthcare Consulting partners with clients to solve high-stakes challenges in surgical access, anesthesia coverage, and operational efficiency. These services are essential to financial performance, surgeon satisfaction, and patient access—but often underperform without the right strategy and leadership.

We deliver targeted solutions that make a measurable difference:

• Optimized anesthesia practice models and reduce stipend costs
• Improve OR scheduling, block time governance, and throughput
• Develop and turnaround ambulatory surgery centers
• Provide interim perioperative leaders to maintain momentum
• Align clinical and operational strategy for sustainable growth

Their process is simple: assess and benchmark all perioperative services and their interdependencies, clearly identify what isn’t working, build consensus for a best-practice based solution, and help all stakeholders work together to correct it.

Testimonials

Braselton Surgery Center logo

“We engaged Sullivan Healthcare Consulting to lead the development and launch of our brand new four OR, two procedure room multi-specialty ASC. Sullivan supported all aspects of the project from syndication and valuation to design and development, through operations preparation and a successful launch. The project was delivered on time and on budget. Now we are serving the community with the highest quality, state-of-the-art outpatient surgery, thanks to Sullivan’s guidance and expertise.”

Greenspring Surgery Center logo

“After several years of having a national ASC firm managing our center, we wanted to take back control of ownership and operations. Sullivan Healthcare Consultants helped the ASC return to 100% physician ownership. The transition process was smooth, and the results speak for themselves.

Under Sullivan management, our ASC distributed more to the physician owners in the first four months than the previous two years combined.”

“We engaged Sullivan Healthcare Consulting to guide the planning and development of a 12 OR, Ortho-only HOPD inside a 240,000 square foot hyper-specialized orthopedic Medical Office Building. In addition to helping us craft the new aligned governance structure, future-ready facility design, efficient workflow planning, and strategic staffing plan for the new build out, the Sullivan Team optimized operations for an improved patient and physician experience by implementing best practices in the new site.”
