The Birth of OneHealth

Dr. Cook and Dr. Sharawy have been on a mission bigger than themselves for over 30 years, steadfastly committed to a vision that not everyone understood. In our conversation, we explore the birth of OneHealth, a culmination of a lifelong pursuit to create a healthcare system that truly embodies a clear set of core values and principles. Keeping in mind the trials and tribulations they faced in their former lives, the good doctors came to the realization that they needed to create a new healthcare model that focused on the importance of accountable autonomy, where providers have the freedom to drive and own their practice while collaborating with others who share the same goal. At OneHealth, we have an unwavering commitment to a cause much bigger than ourselves, even when faced with the temptation of private equity or venture capital. We built a governance structure from the bottom up, ensuring that providers have a voice and are part of the decision-making process. We recognize that our model may not be for everyone, but we have a commitment to lifting all boats around us. Our ferocious growth at OneHealth gives us the potential for national expansion.
