When we first met Mr. Meza, he completed what he referred to as a practice analysis. He made several recommendations, which were implemented with his assistance. The outcome provided improved efficiencies, but more importantly helped us to understand where we stood financially. Going forward, Mr. Meza created a budget that we reviewed each month with him to discuss disparities, along with our profit and loss. Over time we were able to identify and reduce extraneous spending. His service, expertise and overall knowledge provided us the comfort of practicing medicine without always worrying about our financials and practice operations. I would certainly recommend his practice analysis and retainer services.

My husband and I were trying to start an urgent care center, and found ourselves overwhelmed by all of the tasks entailed in starting our own medical practice. It became increasingly clear that in order to open our doors in a timely manner and without costly mistakes, we needed help. After extensive research, we found GTM Medical Consulting.
GTM Medical Consulting has truly made this experience a great one. They were always readily accessible, professional, and provided the highest quality of work. GTM did an extraordinary job helping us create a successful business plan that we believe will place our company on the road to success. GTM has also made the daunting task of finding competitive vendors, and contractors stress-free, and has dealt with negotiating competitive contracts with Payors. We have had such a wonderful experience with GTM that we look forward to collaborating with them on future medical ventures. We will also be keeping them on retainer to receive the ongoing support we like.
We highly recommend their services to anyone who is looking for an efficient stress-free way to open their medical practice.

Bettina Adjei, MD
After leaving my group practice, starting my own with no assistance, managing it for a few years and believing it was doing fairly well, I found myself having to deal with the more challenging task of deciding on an EMR that was reasonable for the practice and the staff. Gary Meza, owner of GTM Medical Consulting, was recommended by a close friend. Also a doctor, she was actually in the same situation, just a few steps ahead and at the time being assisted by Gary. Looking back, I realized that I did not do too bad, considering that like most physicians, I did not receive didactics on the business of medicine. Like most physicians, I had so little time to handle the aspect of my growing practice and the daily tasks of running my practice. My minimal experience helped me during the first few years of my practice, but expertise was definitely what the practice needed during this time. GTM provided that to our practice. When Gary started working with us, he looked at our EMR options. He also made sure that that the practice was operating in a more efficient manner, guidelines were in place, insurance contracts were reviewed so that the increasing economic demands of a growing practice had appropriate income to remain solvent. For the past almost four years, thankfully, GTM has helped with three EMR transitions as well as the ebb and flow of cash flow situations. He always gave his recommendations and been available, even when he was on vacation. He’s respected my decisions, even if they were not the best, and he was relentless in providing assistance to get us out of crisis mode and bring our practice back on track.
Virginia Pediatrics, PC
Amabel Sibal, MD, Owner
When my partner and I decided to start a new pediatric urology practice, we thought six months would give us ample time to make all the arrangements. It soon became apparent that we could not attend to the many tasks of a “start-up” while continuing to deliver care to our patients in the practice we were leaving. We called Gary Meza at the recommendation of a practice manager, not knowing quite what to expect. Within about 48 hours, GTM put together a list and timetable of tasks to help us reach our goal.
They helped us with guidance on the items we could accomplish ourselves, and methodically attacked the other jobs that we didn’t know how, or didn’t have time, to do. GTM’s experience as a practice manager and consultant for small-business start-ups enabled them to foresee bottlenecks before they became problematic.
Our practice started on time, with a new office, some well-selected new staff members, an electronic practice management system, and an apparently seamless transition. GTM Medical Consulting was the ingredient that made this project possible. We are grateful that GTM is willing to remain available to our practice as a mentor for questions that inevitably arise.

I am writing to thank GTM for their capable advice. It’s rare to find consultants who have the years of direct, diversified, and successful management experience, particularly in healthcare. Their perspective and analytical skills ‘from the outside looking in’ have great applicability and practicality.
We are truly better for having made their acquaintance. After more than 25 years of my own experience in the field of healthcare delivery management, I can definitely say GTM brings greater value than their cost!

GTM Medical Consulting transitioned our practice into the professional organization we had envisioned. They redesigned our office accounting process, enhanced our financial reporting system, and subsequently standardized our financial practices. GTM instituted professional training to improve the efficacy of daily operations. They also handled all aspects of developing our ambulatory surgery center, which included financing, accreditation, equipment, staffing, inventory control, licensing, contracting and ultimately saved us thousands of dollars.
