Will Furness

Will, President and CEO at Thriveworks, started his career in finance and quickly found he had a passion for improving patient care delivery. He has spent his career dedicated to improving the patient experience and strongly believes the way to do that is by engaging the care teams that support the patient. Will has a belief that access to mental healthcare should be as fundamental as primary care and that Thriveworks is the best-positioned company to improve access for patients at scale.

Prior to joining Thriveworks, Will worked in multisite healthcare services at Dartmouth, Sound Physicians, and Vein Clinics of America (VCA). Will has experience in high-growth, tech-enabled healthcare and was most recently the President and COO at VCA.

Will completed an MBA from the Sloan School of Management at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a Masters in Healthcare Delivery Science at Dartmouth College, and he was a Fellowship Scholar at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice. Will is also a guest lecturer in healthcare services at Cornell University.
