Due to the extreme shift that Solstice Health has created in the way healthcare is delivered, it is not uncommon for Dr. Timothy Murray to receive some pretty extraordinary testimonials from patients and employers not only for the top-level care that they’ve received but also the financial savings created for them and how that affects their lives or their businesses.
“We are intentional about leveraging those testimonials directly with our staff so that they may benefit from those experiences and continue to build upon the extreme impact they have created,” said Murray. “It’s one thing to know that you are creating value daily based on a free market and transparent healthcare model, but it’s a whole different experience when you hear and feel the raw emotions and successes that you helped create for someone else in need.”
Founded in 2012 by Murray, Solstice Health represents a pioneering approach to healthcare in Wisconsin, committed to delivering transparent, high-quality, affordable, and accessible preventive wellness and medical care to local communities and businesses.
“Our goal is clear: to ensure that everyone has unparalleled access to affordable, high-quality healthcare,” said Murray.
Nearly three years ago, Solstice Health made the leap, after a decade of success, to begin offering affordable cash-pay surgeries. Under Murray’s leadership, Solstice Health has been a leader and is now the only organization in the country of its kind to have both direct primary care and direct surgical care, along with several other ancillary wellness-driven services. In addition, the organization added medical-grade hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to its schedule of services and Murray has led the charge to establishing successful partnerships and providing ongoing education for individuals and self-funded businesses.
“Our model, at 70-80% less than the traditional healthcare system along with a higher level of care, has created a true paradigm shift for healthcare delivery,” said Murray.
“Our goal has always been to offer what is otherwise inaccessible and unaffordable to everyone so that they may have the same opportunities for a higher level of care.”
As a leader, Murray said his greatest leadership lesson this year has been understanding the importance of regularly reevaluating the firm’s mission. “By maintaining the same level of courage and determination that we had when we first started the business, we are better equipped to face new challenges and seize emerging opportunities,” said the two-time Titan 100. “By actively combating complacency, we foster a culture of continuous improvement and excellence.”
