Today we catch up with Zak Holdsworth!

Our conversation touched on the following (and much more!):

  • DPC Simplified: What sets DPC apart and why it’s worth considering, plus addressing common misconceptions.
  • Scaling Success: Strategies for streamlining operations, overcoming challenges, and leveraging technology and partnerships for sustainable growth.
  • Connecting the Dots: How to find the right tools, resources, and mentorship to ease the transition to DPC and build a thriving practice

Zak co-founded Hint Health to accelerate the growth and success of the direct primary care (DPC) movement. As a passionate advocate for provider-led, patient-centered care, Zak has dedicated his career to transforming healthcare by driving down costs, improving outcomes, and restoring satisfaction for both patients and providers.

Before Hint, Zak was Vice President at WellnessFX, a direct-to-consumer clinical diagnostics and telemedicine company, and a venture capitalist at Voyager Capital, where he focused on innovative technology startups.

Zak earned his MBA from Stanford University and a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Canterbury University in New Zealand. When he’s not working to reshape healthcare, Zak enjoys kite surfing and exploring the world through adventure sports.
