About Us

At Alpha Consulting Group, Inc. we help hospitals and surgery centers optimize their perioperative and sterile processing services for maximum efficiency, clinical excellence, and financial sustainability. Founded by experienced healthcare leaders who have navigated the complexities of surgical services firsthand, we bring strategic, results-driven solutions to elevate performance and patient care.

Perioperative services are among the most significant revenue-generating departments in a hospital, but without strong leadership and optimized processes, they can fall short of their full potential. Healthcare organizations often struggle with:

   ▶ High vacancy rates for surgical services leadership

   ▶ Limited succession planning for future OR leaders

   ▶ A shortage of perioperative professionals with clinical expertise and business skills

   ▶ Gaps in formal education and mentorship for surgical service management

Recognizing these challenges, Alpha Consulting Group, Inc. was founded by Paul Wafer, a seasoned perioperative leader with 25+ years of OR experience, and Michelle Landa, a business strategist with deep healthcare expertise. What started as a consulting firm quickly expanded to include interim leadership services, providing hospitals with the expertise they need, exactly when they need it.

Today, we offer a full spectrum of solutions designed to enhance operations, streamline workflows, and ensure compliance with industry best practices.

We are committed to delivering actionable, research-based strategies that drive quality, efficiency, and profitability for healthcare organizations. Our goal is to help clients achieve a high-performing surgical environment through expert evaluation, strategic planning, and hands-on implementation.

With over 50 years of combined leadership experience, our team includes perioperative specialists, sterile processing experts, and healthcare strategists dedicated to:

   ▶ Implementing efficient, scalable solutions for OR and SPD operations

   ▶ Providing interim and long-term leadership support

   ▶ Enhancing staff competency, engagement, and retention

   ▶ Driving cost-effective, high-quality patient care
