With Workshop Strategy, you’re not just getting advice or expert consulting; you’re accessing a wealth of knowledge shaped by triumphs over adversity. Here, we believe in leveraging legacy to drive success. Our approach is rooted in Sam’s unique journey, one that turned startups into industry leaders and adversities into stepping stones.

From the humble streets of a rural village in India to the pinnacle of healthcare entrepreneurship, Sam’s journey is a testament to resilience, determination, and vision. Born into challenging circumstances — grappling with near blindness, living as an undocumented immigrant, and facing severe economic hardships — Sam’s early life was far from easy. These challenges didn’t break him; they forged him.

Navigating these hurdles, Sam developed an unyielding work ethic, a tenacity to overcome, and a profound desire to uplift those in need — traits that would later define his professional and philanthropic pursuits.

Today, as a leading voice in the healthcare space, he channels his unique experiences to inspire, mentor, and transform. His story isn’t just about personal triumph; it’s about harnessing adversity, turning trials into strengths, and leveraging those strengths to make a lasting impact in pharmacy, medicine, and business practices.

He founded Bank’s Apothecary in inner-city Philadelphia, and focused on patients with mental health and substance use disorder in 2010. He later expanded the company to the larger Pennsylvania area and later took it regional, covering the eastern United States. In 2022, Sam exited the company and sold to a private equity firm that focuses on the healthcare sector. He was unique in being the company’s Founder, CEO and Chief Clinical Officer, putting people over profits – yet driving astronomical growth.  He hopes that his guiding principles of better healthcare for those who are vulnerable can spread nationally.

Sam’s success is built on a foundation of versatile expertise:

• Leadership Roles: Proven success as CEO, CFO, and COO, driving growth and innovation – turning his local small business into a $280 Million powerhouse. His company became one of the largest independent Specialty Pharmacy in the country
• Negotiations: Mastery in contract negotiations, (Pharma/PBM/Payer/Regulatory etc)  ensuring win-win outcomes
• Clinical Insight: Experience as a Principal Pharmacist and Chief Clinical Officer, emphasizing patient-focused care
• Operational Excellence: Hands-on experience in streamlining operations for efficiency and success

While his primary focus is on pharmacy, medicine, and the healthcare sector, his broad spectrum of skills makes him a valuable asset in diverse business scenarios. From philanthropy to Fortune 500 companies, to small businesses – his goal is for the betterment of humanity.
