Huron Consulting Group, a Chicago-based operations consultancy, recently expanded its education and health services practice with the additions of Dr. Robert Crone and Kathleen Gallagher. The two have extensive histories working with academic medical centers and now will be consulting for them through Huron.
The staff additions further highlight Huron's investment in its education and health services practice. In January 2007, Huron acquired Wellspring Partners LTD, a management consulting firm specializing in integrated performance improvement services for hospitals and health systems.
Crone and Gallagher bring decades of experience to Huron. Gallagher has worked as a nurse as well as a consultant for CSC Healthcare. She most recently spent three years as vice dean at the New York University School of Medicine.
