Background

About Scott Goss

The key to successful leadership in today’s rapidly evolving healthcare industry is the ability to embrace challenges rather than run from them. Each and every challenge represents an opportunity for growth and positive change, and only by uncovering and overcoming challenges can healthcare organizations meet their commitments to patients, clinicians, staff, and the community. My leadership approach begins with building the right team to ensure the groundwork is laid for continued growth, expansion, and innovation. However, building the team is just the beginning. For me, leadership represents an ongoing process of supporting my team in their needs, challenging them to reach their full potential, and encouraging new ways of thinking and doing to deliver exceptional results. Career OverviewI spent my early career in healthcare consulting, PE finance, and technology roles before making a commitment to develop and grow my skills and experience in healthcare operations, management, and leadership as the Director of Marketing and Development for Heritage Provider Network. Recognizing the importance of global leadership and learning how to manage and grow to scale, I moved to Abbott Laboratories as a leader in strategy, marketing, and informatics. My roles at Abbott took me from designing R&D strategy to becoming the Global Marketing Director of Innovation and Informatics. From there, I became North American General Manager of STARLIMS Technologies after successful M&A identification, execution, and integration. Finally, I was appointed General Manager of OneLab, Abbott informatics to utilize my leadership skills to turn around this division.Following my time at Abbott, I took on leadership roles with Cambridge Cognition before joining Forefront Dermatology as Chief Marketing Officer in 2015. Through a targeted approach to talent, innovation, and growth opportunities, my efforts have helped expand Forefront to more than double their number of clinics, recapitalize with two PE partners at mid teen multiples, and in 2021, I was promoted to Chief Operating Officer of the organization. Career Highlights Grew total revenue by 25% and CTO by 18% by optimizing organic and inorganic growth and performance. Achieved 92% clinician retention rate using focused recruiting and engagement.
