Genuine human connection is the basis of quality care and overall satisfaction. My goal in all things is to establish this connection with those we serve and with those who provide direct participant care. It is my honor to be in a position within an organization such as InnovAge that allows me to reach this goal day in and day out. Read More

Mark Learned, MD

I saw my mother care for her mother for more than 15 years after a traumatic brain injury, and I watched my father care for his mother as she declined from dementia. They were clearly labors of love – and Herculean labors in their own right. Spending my career at a place that tries to help seniors and families get the help they need is a tremendous honor.
