Meroka's Mission

Our Mission is to make independent practice ownership the default path for physicians in all specialties.

We believe that care delivered in the independent setting produces superior patient outcomes at a lower cost. By breaking down barriers to successfully operate an independent practice, we aim to empower more physicians to choose ownership over employment and swing the pendulum away from consolidation. Because healthcare deserves to be personal not corporate.

What We Believe

You have served your community and built a business by providing personalized care. We think that is worth preserving.

Independence Wins

Care delivered in the independent setting produces superior patient outcomes at a more affordable cost.

Your Voices Matter

Physicians, not administrators, know patients the best. Your voices should lead.

Community-First

You should be empowered to do what is best for your patients, your practice, and your community

Never Compromise Care

Patient care should never be compromised, and patients are not served well in a society where 75% of physicians are employees of corporate conglomerates.

Balance is Key

Operating a practice should not mean sacrificing your own health and well-being.

Values-Driven

The corporatization of healthcare compromises the ethical standards physicians hold dear.

Our Values

Outsider

At our core, we celebrate the strength and innovation that come from being outsiders. We challenge conventional wisdom, daring to think differently and embracing new perspectives with open arms. Our quest for truth drives us to question long-standing assumptions, ensuring that our path forward is not constrained by the 'way things have always been done.' It's this outsider mentality that fuels our creativity and leads us to disrupt the status quo for the better.

Underdogs

Our spirit is rooted in the belief that the 'small guy' deserves a fighting chance against the goliath of corporate dominance. Mirroring this belief internally, we operate with the agility and heart of an underdog—lean, powerful, and driven by a human-centric philosophy. We see growth not just as a goal, but as a journey that challenges us to venture beyond our comfort zones, supported by resources that empower us to rise above.

Rising Tides

We adhere to the principle that success is a collective achievement. In our world, fairness, equitability, and alignment are the cornerstones that ensure everyone moves forward together. We are committed to building transformative wealth for all our partners and team members, firmly believing in the power of ownership and equity. It's the knowledge of those who are masters of their destiny that drives everyone to excel and thrive.

Fast, but Slow

Our journey is marked by consistent progress towards a grand vision, one that acknowledges the need for patience as much as it does the necessity for daily advancement. We understand that true greatness unfolds one step at a time, guided by a steadfast commitment to our long-term goals. This balanced approach ensures that while we move fast to innovate and adapt, we also move thoughtfully to build a legacy that lasts.

Sharp Edges

We are committed to self-awareness, recognizing that understanding our strengths and weaknesses is key to our personal and professional growth. This introspection enables us to harness our full potential while acknowledging and addressing our limitations. We encourage every team member to bring their unique 'Why' to the forefront, for it's this personal drive that sustains us through challenges and propels us toward our collective goals. Bring Your Own Why (BYOW). We see the bigger picture, and sometimes we leave your personal beliefs outside the room. Embracing our sharp edges, we navigate the complexity of our mission with resilience and purpose.
