Who I Am

Gerardo Savo González — Healthcare Operations Consultant and Lean Six Sigma Green Belt

I'm Gerardo Savo González — a healthcare operations consultant with over 10 years of experience helping private clinics and healthcare organizations stop firefighting and start running like the professional operations they are.

I hold a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt and a PROSCI Change Management Certification. I work in both English and Spanish. And I've spent the better part of a decade at the intersection of two things most consultants choose between: the strategic thinking that leadership wants, and the frontline execution that makes change actually stick.

I don't hand you a report and disappear.

I analyze, design, train, and implement — so the changes last beyond the engagement.

My Background

My career has been built around one core observation: most clinic problems aren't people problems.

They're systems problems. Good staff forced to work with broken processes, unclear roles, and tools that were never properly configured for how the clinic actually operates.

I've worked across private clinics, multi-specialty practices, and healthcare organizations — designing SOPs from scratch, rebuilding intake workflows, configuring underused EMR systems, and leading teams through operational transformations that were held back not by willingness, but by the absence of clear structure.

Along the way, I've become fluent in both the language of clinical operations and the language of organizational change — which is what makes my work different from a standard management consulting engagement.

My Methodology: Four Pillars

Every engagement I run is built on the same foundation:

Analyze pillar icon — clinic workflow observation and diagnostic

Analyze

I map how your clinic actually operates — not how you think it does. Workflow observation, staff interviews, data review.

Design pillar icon — SOP design, process documentation, and patient journey mapping

Design

I design systems that fit your reality. SOPs, role clarity documents, patient journey maps, KPI dashboards.

Train pillar icon — staff training and change management for clinic teams

Train

I train your team to use the new system — not just explain it. Adoption is part of the deliverable.

Implement pillar icon — go-live support and post-implementation review

Implement

I stay through go-live and post-implementation review. Real change requires real follow-through.

Remote-First. Available Globally. Delivered in English & Spanish.

Private healthcare is growing and internationalizing. Clinic groups are expanding across regions. International health-tech companies are entering new markets. And the gap between strategic intent and operational reality keeps getting wider.

That's the gap I work in.

I'm available for remote engagements globally, with a particular focus on Europe's expanding private health sector. I work across English-speaking and Spanish-speaking healthcare environments — bridging international healthcare groups with local Spanish-speaking teams where that translation, both literal and cultural, creates real value.

Available for remote engagements worldwide. Working in English and Spanish. Focused on private healthcare operations — wherever that work is needed.

Who I Work With

My engagements are designed for:

  • Private clinics and owner-managed practices ready to build systems that last

  • Multi-location dental, physiotherapy, or specialty groups that need standardized SOPs across sites

  • Independent practitioners drowning in admin who are ready to reclaim their time

  • Health-tech startups building clinical operations before they scale

I don't work with the public sector, software development projects, or anyone looking for a quick fix with no follow-through.

Let's Connect

If you want to see what a well-run clinic looks like from the inside — and what it takes to build one — I'd welcome the conversation.
