@beyondbrainhealth: The Thorne deal caught my attention because I recognize the pattern—trust is built through hard work, passion, and dedication… then the company is sold. In supplements, trust becomes attached to a formulation and a brand. In food, it becomes attached to ingredients and a founder’s story. In medicine, it becomes attached to a hospital and the clinicians caring for us. Yet in all three, important decisions may eventually be controlled by owners the public never sees. Ownership can shift from the small company people trusted to a larger corporation with different priorities, while the familiar name, branding, and public-facing relationships remain unchanged. In medicine, private equity ownership of physician practices has expanded across many specialties over the last decade. Corporations change the way people making decisions about staffing, scheduling, policies, and resources. And just like the change in our supplements, the change in our food ownership, private equity in medicine can change the product being delivered… Should changes in ownership like the ones we see across supplements, food and medicines be easier for the public to recognize? #foodindustry #healthcare #supplement

I used to only see independent practice ODs for my primary care. Now? It's impossible to find one who doesn't work for a giant souless c-corp like HCA. The difference is stark & I hate it, but they've effectively regulated the independent ODs/MDs out of existence.

I think they should absolutely be required to put out a press release, minimally

Yes they should be required to share when they’re bought out so we will know when to leave. Haven’t been to the doctor for six years.
