In healthcare, trust isn’t optional — it’s required. Patients, providers, and partners all rely on systems that are secure, compliant, and built to last. But when a consulting firm says all the right things and ignores critical technical flaws — repeatedly — it’s not just ironic. It’s dangerous.
Why We’re Writing This:
This isn’t just a technical teardown — it’s a last-resort PSA. Over time, we privately flagged several issues to Healthcare Growth Group’s leadership. Despite multiple good-faith attempts to help, those concerns were dismissed or ignored.
So, we’re sharing this now — not to attack, but to inform. If a firm is offering guidance in healthcare, the bar should be high. Right now, it’s not.
The Pitch:
Healthcare Growth Group promises:
- “Transformational growth strategies”
- “Strategic healthcare expansion”
- “Multi-functional operational support”
- “Compliance and legal expertise”
Impressive words. But what does an actual audit reveal?
The Reality:
A review of Healthcare Growth Group’s digital presence uncovered:
- Hosted on Squarespace — a platform not designed for enterprise-grade healthcare hosting
- 0/100 on HTTP Security Headers — lacking even basic web protections
- No DMARC, DKIM, or SPF — leaving email exposed to spoofing
- No WAF (Web Application Firewall)
- No DNSSEC — vulnerable to domain spoofing and cache poisoning
- No engagement after offers to assist — silence when it mattered
- Zero Trust — but not in the security architecture sense
Why It Matters:
When a firm operates in a regulated industry like healthcare, its own digital footprint becomes part of the message. If you’re offering HIPAA compliance help, you need to model security — not just talk about it.
The Takeaway:
Healthcare organizations deserve better from their partners. It’s not enough to promise strategy — you must implement security. If your consultant can’t secure their own website, how can they secure your expansion?
Closing Line:
When your consulting firm is all talk and Squarespace… not a single byte of digital trust remains.
