What Our Clients Say
“I can pay people to do everything but think. That’s why we hired Cohesion.”
— Steve Moya, SVP & CMO, Humana
“Brian has a unique ability to make the complex simple… we are thrilled with the end result.”
— Mike Marchal, President, Holland Construction Services
“I am the founder of Integrity Hospital Company, a management and advisory practice which has served over 110 hospital and health system clients since 1989. During that time I have served as CEO for twelve hospital systems, all of whom faced major challenges. During my time as CEO for a St. Louis healthcare system, I had the opportunity to work personally with Cohesion and Brian Creath. I can say without reservation that Brian and his team were the finest strategic advisors of all of the groups I have had the opportunity to work with. They were exceptional thinkers and listeners. They were profoundly helpful in repositioning our health system in a highly competitive market. I viewed Brian as a trusted and valuable colleague during our time together.”
— Michael E. Rindler, Founder.Integrity Hospital Company
