Why We Exist
At HMS Consultants, we are pioneering a new era of healthcare marketing. Our mission is to transform the way healthcare providers connect with their patients, leveraging innovative strategies that drive engagement, enhance brand visibility, and foster sustainable growth.
Founded by Akhil Dave, a visionary leader with over 24 years of experience in healthcare marketing, we understand the unique challenges and opportunities within the industry. We exist to empower healthcare providers—whether they are large hospitals, specialty clinics, or rural healthcare facilities—by providing them with tailored, data-driven marketing solutions that resonate with their target audiences.
Our goal is to help healthcare businesses thrive in a dynamic environment by harnessing the power of strategic insights and cutting-edge marketing techniques. At HMS Consultants, we believe in the potential of every healthcare provider to achieve excellence and make a meaningful impact in the lives of their patients.
The Genesis of HMS Consultants
The inception of HMS Consultants is rooted in the visionary leadership of Akhil Dave, a distinguished healthcare marketing expert with over 24 years of experience. Throughout his career, Akhil has served as the marketing head for some of India's leading hospitals, where he consistently delivered exceptional results and drove strategic growth. In 2020, he took a bold step into entrepreneurship by partnering with Niraj Upadhyay, the innovative founder of Trizone Communications Pvt Ltd. Together, they launched Trizone Healthcare Consultants, a firm dedicated to providing comprehensive 360-degree integrated marketing communication (IMC) solutions for mid-sized and large healthcare organizations.
While working with larger healthcare providers, Akhil identified a crucial gap in the market. Many smaller clinics, multispecialty hospitals, and rural healthcare facilities struggled to access expert marketing strategies due to the high costs associated with premium agencies. These providers often had marketing teams or digital agencies that lacked the strategic guidance necessary to thrive in the competitive healthcare landscape. Recognising this need, Akhil founded HMS Consultants to offer affordable, bespoke marketing consultancy services tailored to the unique requirements of healthcare businesses across India.
Akhil’s passion for healthcare marketing extends beyond his consultancy work. As the Founding Chairman of the AHMP India Foundation, he leads a network of like-minded professionals committed to inspiring, innovating, and transforming ethical healthcare marketing practices in India. The foundation focuses on raising industry standards through networking and education, ensuring that marketing efforts adhere to ethical guidelines while effectively engaging patients.
With a dedication to ethical marketing and a wealth of industry experience, Akhil Dave has positioned HMS Consultants as a trusted partner for healthcare providers seeking strategic guidance and innovative solutions. Our mission is to empower healthcare businesses with data-driven strategies that enhance patient engagement, improve brand visibility, and drive sustainable growth.
