What if I told you we could reduce the cost of healthcare by a third of what we currently spend as a country – without lowering the quality of care? I know we can. I aim to start a movement toward better healthcare for everyone. But I can’t do it alone.
By implementing changes like establishing baseline best practices, expanding access to care through technology, and providing the right incentives to all parties, we can save more lives while spending less. This is no fantasy – I’ve implemented programs with results like these at the healthcare systems where I’ve worked throughout my decades-long career.
It starts with listening – to each other. We can begin this journey together by having an honest and civil conversation about what’s not working in healthcare and possible solutions for the problems we face. Then, we can align on fixing the system and truly unlock human potential to effect change. Improving quality in this way inevitably leads to reduced cost, better relationships, better health, and happier lives.
My podcast, The Groves Connection, is about the conversations that unearth our common bond to fix healthcare and a shared hope for the future.
Only through these dialogues can everyone get a full picture of the complexities of the system, as well as what’s required for sustainable change. By having a wide range of guests on my podcast series, I’m hoping we can learn where the middle ground is and discover a path for the needed change.
Join me in this movement, become a part of the change, inspire others, and maybe, just maybe, we can finally end the gridlock that has bedeviled our healthcare system for too long.

Sherri Douville - Bridging the Tech/Healthcare Gap
Hello Connectors, Today’s guest is a true Connector, confidently bridging the gap between the tech industry and modern healthcare: Sherri Douville. Sherri is the CEO of Medigram, the Mobile Medicine company, and is listed as one of the highest ranking tech executives in eight areas of technology and healthcare by Boardroom Media. She is also a best-selling author, and is soon to release her third book, defining advanced technology for medicine (Taylor & Francis 2022). Prior to her current work in the mobile medicine, privacy, security, health IT, and artificial intelligence industries, Sherri worked in the medical device field, consulting on physician acceptance and economic feasibility for medical devices. Given the concerning cybersecurity threats plaguing our healthcare systems, and the lack of communication between software engineers and healthcare providers, Sherri’s role is more crucial than it’s ever been.
Sherri’s perspective is unique, and informed by her capacity for self guided learning, and her loving attention to detail. Today’s conversation spans many topics, but focuses primarily on the disconnect between the tech and healthcare industries. Sherri expertly draws parallels between the Oceangate catastrophe and the role of hype in shaping the poorly implemented tech solutions physicians simply don’t want to use. Join us as we explore the depths and challenges of building true systems-based solutions, and the path toward a better, human-centric future for medicine.
