Jessica Stewart, MHA, MPH, is the founder of Good Stewart Consulting. Over the past six years, she has worked alongside community health organizations and hospitals across California through one of the most volatile stretches in modern healthcare, helping leaders adapt patient care models, navigate shifting payer and regulatory dynamics, and keep operations stable under sustained financial pressure. That work demanded exactly what independent practices now need: clear prioritization, operational discipline, and the ability to find revenue others miss.

Earlier in her career, Jessica worked at Emory Healthcare and served as Operations Director at multiple independent practices spanning Neurology, Psychiatry, Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Pain Management, Surgical Oncology, Otolaryngology, and several Urgent Care facilities, collectively representing more than $20 million in combined revenue. Her track record includes redesigning revenue cycle operations during a payer dispute that recovered $3 million, leading EHR migrations across multi-site practices, and scaling a specialty practice from 4 to 14 providers while supporting the operational launch of new practice sites.

She started Good Stewart Consulting after watching too many strong independent practices sell to hospitals or private equity not because they wanted to, but because no one had shown them how much revenue they were leaving on the table. The firm exists to give independent owners the same caliber of strategic support that hospital systems take for granted.

Jessica holds a Master of Healthcare Administration and a Master of Public Health from The George Washington University, and is based in San Diego, California.
