While Silicon Valley chases AI unicorns, PediPlace is building a quiet empire in Flower Mound, Texas, by solving a fundamental human problem: access to pediatric care for families who have been historically left behind by the healthcare system.

"This isn't a startup chasing growth at all costs; it's a mission-driven machine optimized for stability and community impact."

The leadership team, led by President Larry Robins and Chief Engagement Officer Shari Markey, has built a lean operation. With a tech stack that includes Zendesk for patient support and Google Analytics for tracking, they operate with the efficiency of a digital-first company while delivering high-touch, in-person care. The absence of venture funding is a feature, not a bug—it allows them to prioritize patient outcomes over investor returns.

• Profitability over hype: $4.7M revenue with a lean 25-person team suggests strong unit economics.
• Local dominance: Traffic is 100% undefined (likely US-based), with hyper-local keyword capture.
• Mission alignment: Serving Medicaid/CHIP patients requires operational excellence and efficient cost management.
