I look forward to working with the impressive roster of experts at FTI Consulting as we work with payers, providers and other healthcare and life sciences organizations to identify strategies and solutions to address a growing list of business-critical challenges.”

Dr. Goodman’s hiring continues the expansion of the Healthcare and Life Sciences practice within the Strategic Communications segment at FTI Consulting and follows the recent appointments of public affairs and corporate reputation professionals Shelley DuBois, Brian Doheny, Audrey Jackson, Shana Marino, Emma Winstead, Ian Flowers and Grace McDonnell.
