Business Spotlight
Executive Medicine of Texas is celebrating an impressive milestone — 20 years of redefining healthcare delivery. Founded by Dr. Walter Gaman and Dr. Mark Anderson, this pioneering concierge medical practice emerged from a fundamental frustration with traditional healthcare models. As CEO Judy Gaman explains, the founders were trapped on what they called the "HMO treadmill" where nobody was winning — not the doctors, not the patients, and certainly not the quality of care being delivered. This realization led to a revolutionary approach to medicine that has attracted patients from around the world, including Fortune 500 companies, celebrities, and families seeking personalized, comprehensive healthcare.
What makes Executive Medicine of Texas unique is their patient-centered approach. Unlike conventional medical practices where appointments are rushed and often delayed by months, Executive Medicine provides immediate access and extended face-to-face time with physicians. Their executive exam rooms are deliberately designed with chairs alongside examination tables, creating an environment where meaningful conversations can happen. Patients often describe their experience as refreshingly personal, with one client famously referring to it as "the Cheers bar without alcohol" — a place where everyone knows your name, your health concerns, and your personal goals. This level of familiarity and personal attention extends beyond the physicians to include the entire staff, from nurses to what they uniquely call their "Director of First Impressions" (rather than receptionist).
A common misconception about concierge medicine is that it's exclusively for the wealthy or famous. While Executive Medicine of Texas does serve high-profile clients, they've intentionally developed family concierge services recognizing that time is a precious commodity for everyone, particularly entrepreneurs and business professionals. When patients call with urgent concerns, they receive immediate attention — a stark contrast to the "next Tuesday at 10 o'clock" or "six months from now" responses typical in traditional practices. This accessibility solves a critical problem for busy individuals who understand that health issues rarely align with convenient scheduling windows. The practice has thrived largely through word-of-mouth referrals, with satisfied patients enthusiastically recommending their services in settings ranging from international flights to golf courses and spa visits.
The comprehensive nature of Executive Medicine's approach sets them apart in meaningful ways. A standard visit to a traditional doctor might include basic blood work and a cursory examination, often leaving patients with the false impression that "no news is good news." In contrast, Executive Medicine's executive physical involves half a day of extensive testing — over 100 different lab values, cognitive assessments, posture evaluations, and more. This thoroughness provides patients with a complete picture of their health status, presented through easy-to-understand graphs and metrics. Whether a client's goal is to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, walk up stairs without breathlessness, or address declining energy levels, the practice develops customized plans to help them achieve their specific health objectives. This team-based approach places the patient at the center of care, surrounded by advocates committed to driving personal health success.
Executive Medicine of Texas has also leveraged media to extend their health education mission beyond their immediate patient base. Their Stay Young America podcast, which evolved from a nationally syndicated radio show that aired on Sirius XM, covers diverse topics ranging from diabetes and heart disease to contemporary issues like the loneliness epidemic. By featuring leading scientists, celebrities, and bestselling authors, they've created another platform to share valuable health information globally. This commitment to education aligns perfectly with their practice philosophy — empowering individuals with knowledge and resources to optimize their health and longevity. As Judy Gaman succinctly states, "We're helping people live longer every day."
