Doug Stapleton is the Founder of Synova Medical, guided by a commitment to transparency, accountability, and improving how people experience healthcare.
Doug’s interest in healthcare grew from seeing how critical trust and clarity are when patients and providers are making high-stakes decisions. Over time, he became increasingly aware of how often complexity, misaligned incentives, and lack of transparency create unnecessary barriers—especially for clinicians and the people they serve.
With an MBA and a background in finance and consulting, Doug brings a disciplined, analytical perspective to the medical space—focused on understanding systems, identifying inefficiencies, and building solutions that are clear, ethical, and practical. His goal in founding Synova Medical was not to overcomplicate care, but to support medical professionals with solutions they can rely on and patients can trust.
Doug’s leadership approach is shaped in part by his military service, where accountability, integrity, and responsibility were non-negotiable. Those principles continue to inform how Synova Medical operates: with honesty, consistency, and respect for the impact healthcare has on real people’s lives.
While Synova Medical serves a broad healthcare community, Doug remains committed to creating meaningful career opportunities for veterans as part of the company’s workforce—believing that diverse, mission-driven teams ultimately strengthen patient outcomes and organizational integrity.
At its core, Synova Medical exists to help bring greater transparency, trust, and reliability to healthcare—one solution, one partnership, and one patient outcome at a time.
