Hoag Memorial Hospital | Consultant | 2014-2016

Acquisition + Expansion

 The unparalleled patient experience from Robin’s integrated healthcare company, Womanology, led to an epic 2014 acquisition by Hoag Memorial Hospital, earning a valuation of nearly eight times EBITDA, more than triple the national average for Therapy practices. Under Robin’s guidance, Womanology became the cornerstone and blueprint for the award-winning Hoag for Her Center for Wellness. 

     

“I was one of the first physicians in Orange County to refer patients to Womanology so I’m very excited that Hoag recently acquired the clinic. 

“Offered in a spa-like setting and calming atmosphere, Womanology has long understood that pelvic-floor conditions for both women and men needed to be addressed with an emotional, as well as clinical approach." —Allyson Brooks, M.D., F.A.C.O.G.,
Ginny Ueberroth Executive Medical Director Endowed Chair and Chief Quality Officer, Hoag Women's Health Institute
