Today we’d like to introduce you to Shawn.
Hi Shawn, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Dr. Shawn Naqvi serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer for Personic Health. Dr. Naqvi has always had a passion for multidisciplinary care focused on the individual needs of patients.
He attended George Mason University, Georgetown University, and Virginia Tech University locally, before completing his Internal Medicine residency training in the Philadelphia area at Christiana Care Hospital. He is board certified in Internal Medicine.
He started his company by seeing the same vulnerable wound care patients enter his ER without any other place to go. Began his journey by understanding wound care patients not only need high quality care but care delivery that meets them where they are.
He also participates in medical education with medical students and resident physicians. Dr. Naqvi is passionate about underserved medicine and devoting his time to directorship roles in clinical practice improvements.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Tough road that included a lot of struggle explaining to the healthcare system and patients alike a new model to deliver care. Wound care has not commonly been mobile and delivered in the home. The first couple years felt like instacart and amazon. The field is flourishing because we meet a critical need without having these sick patients leave their home. We designed our care to be mobile without sacrificing any quality.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Personic Health ?
Personic Health is a physician-led, mobile advanced wound care company that brings the wound clinic directly to patients in their homes — eliminating one of the biggest barriers in chronic wound care: getting the patients who need treatment most to the place where they can receive it. Operating across 26 markets in 11 states with an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurse practitioners, wound nurses, wound techs, we deliver the full spectrum of modalities typically reserved for outpatient wound centers — surgical debridement, ultrasonic MIST therapy, negative pressure wound therapy, advanced diagnostics and autologous blood clot therapy — all at the bedside. What truly sets us apart is that we measure what almost no one else in this space does: our 2025 clinical outcomes were independently validated by Kiser Healthcare Solutions (led by a former CMS Division Director of Quality Measurement) across 5,600 patients and more than 13,400 wound episodes, demonstrating an 8.57% 30-day hospital readmission rate (roughly 60% lower than the chronic wound benchmark of 21%), 22% faster healing than national averages, and an estimated $77.9 million in avoidable downstream healthcare costs prevented — outcomes achieved in a population where 71% of patients fall into moderate-to-high complexity bands. We are most proud of our newly trademarked WoundWise by Personic clinical education and competency program, which formalizes the rigorous, evidence-based training behind every patient encounter, and of the fact that our quality story is no longer a marketing claim but an independently validated, peer-reviewable body of evidence — a rarity in wound care. For referral partners, health systems, payers, and patients alike, Personic represents what advanced wound care should look like in 2026: clinically rigorous, transparently measured, economically accountable, and delivered wherever the patient happens to be.
What are your plans for the future?
Looking ahead, we’re focused on scaling what’s working and deepening the partnerships that have defined our trajectory so far. We’re expanding into new markets and capturing significant whitespace within our existing 26-market footprint, while continuing to build out our service lines and sites of care. A major near-term priority is the national rollout of WoundWise by Personic, our newly trademarked clinical education and competency program — which we believe will set a new standard for how wound care clinicians are trained, credentialed, and held accountable for outcomes across the industry. We’re also exploring broader partnership opportunities with leading national home health and post-acute care organizations, as our independently validated outcomes increasingly resonate with payers and health systems looking to reduce hospitalizations, avoid amputations, and lower the total cost of chronic wound care. Most of all, we’re looking forward to proving that high-quality, physician-led advanced wound care doesn’t have to live inside a hospital or specialty clinic — it can come to the patient, and the data shows it works better when it does.
