For provider, I’d recommend ECG and North Highland (small), Huron (mid), and Deloitte (large)

For pharma, definitely ZS, and LEK to a smaller degree.

HC is such a massive industry and generally flush with cash (although hospitals are getting pinched), so every firm will play there.

Why are you passionate about the healthcare industry?

To me it sounds Iike you missed one of the best opportunities to be a healthcare industry transformer... being a Doctor who also is in tune with technology or process improvement. (Plus with a professional degree there is a compensation floor you are guaranteed to demand to be above)
In my career my advice has been pushed aside many times because “I don’t know what clinicians need”. Being married to a nurse isn’t enough, having 13 years of experience implementing “best practice” isn’t enough for some people... I’m just a computer geek what do I know??
