Experienced healthcare executive brings proven track record of scaling multi-location organizations and building long-term enterprise value
Polaris Healthcare Partners is pleased to announce the addition of Greg Mahoney as Director of Executive Consulting & Advisory, strengthening the firm’s ability to help healthcare group practice owners scale their businesses, improve operational performance and maximize long-term enterprise value.
Mahoney brings extensive experience leading and advising healthcare organizations, from founder-led practices to large, private equity-backed platforms. Throughout his career, he has helped scale a dental support organization from 66 to 114 locations, supported operations within a $130 million dental platform and guided healthcare leaders through complex growth and operational challenges.
His appointment reflects the company’s continued investment in an integrated advisory model that supports practice owners throughout their business journey, from building a scalable organization to navigating a successful sale.
“Greg brings the kind of hands-on operational experience that can make a meaningful difference for group practice owners,” said Diwakar Sinha, CEO of Polaris Healthcare Partners. “At Polaris, we know the work that happens long before a transaction is often what determines its ultimate success. By bolstering our consulting capabilities, we’re even better positioned to help owners build exceptional businesses today and realize their full value when the time is right.”
In his new role, Mahoney will work directly with group practice owners to identify growth opportunities, strengthen organizational infrastructure and implement strategies that maximize business performance and long-term value. His expertise spans operational strategy, revenue cycle management, practice-level profitability, provider productivity and post-acquisition integration.
A central focus of his work will be helping entrepreneurial practice owners make the transition from managing day-to-day operations to leading high-performance organizations, while preserving the clinical excellence and culture that contributed to their success.
For Mahoney, the measure of a successful healthcare business often goes beyond the number of locations it operates.
“Ultimately, I believe the owners who are most successful are those who balance growth with operational discipline. Building a larger organization is one thing, but developing a more profitable, scalable, and valuable business that isn’t entirely dependent on its founder is what creates lasting value,” explains Mahoney.
Polaris’s strategic consulting services complement its established sell-side advisory expertise, providing owners with access to experienced guidance across growth, operational improvement, capital strategy and eventual exit planning. The firm’s consult-to-sale approach recognizes that building enterprise value is an ongoing process, not simply an exercise undertaken when an owner decides to sell.
Mahoney holds a bachelor’s degree from Wabash College and an MBA from the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business. He resides in Indiana with his wife and three children.
