Part 1: The Journey to Healthcare Innovation
"I just fell into it by total coincidence," says Benjamin Leibern, CEO and co-founder of Filament Health, a clinical-stage natural psychedelic drug development company. In the captivating world of healthcare technology, success stories often begin with serendipity. Such is the case for Benjamin Leibern. His remarkable journey commenced with a fortuitous summer job, one that involved the extraction of cancer drug candidates from plants.

Healthcare Entrepreneurs!
I can help you gain visibility and credibility in the right circles so you can accelerate your mission and profitability!
After overcoming burnout working in surgery, I went back to my roots in neuroscience and public health. I learned the importance of building key human relationships with my team throughout our organization.
While helping healthcare executives and entrepreneurs to get out of the day-to-day operation of their practice, I realized I needed more visibility and more connections to reach my ideal clients.
Once I set out to be highly visible in the right circles, I was able to leverage my network of strategic partners to convert clients 5x higher than any other marketing channel I had tried previously.
Now I help healthcare change-makers to accelerate their impact and increase profitability by gaining visibility and credibility with the right strategic partners.
My clients no longer worry about where their next client is coming from, the need to plan additional budget for ads spending, or losing the ability to connect with others because their social media account is shut down.
If you want to share your social mission with the world and gain pivotal supporters that become loyal clients... then you are in the right place, with the right consultant who is also a recovered clinician.
