Team - Medical Directors, Executive Team and Directors

Dr. Mark Percival is our CEO, Chairman and co-medical director. Mark has extensive and unique experience in the healthcare field. For the last two decades, Mark has led the development of systematic approaches to systemic healthcare. Health Coach ® is founded on his work to develop the patient education tools and the clinical operating systems to optimize patient and practitioner outcomes, while maximizing cost effectiveness. As one of Complimentary and Alternative Medicines most respected advocates his international audiences have included thousands of health practitioners and members of the public throughout Canada, United States and Australia. However the past 5 years have been dedicated almost exclusively to the development of Health Coach’s web-based assessment and delivery systems.

Dr. Percival is dual licensed as a doctor of Naturopathic Medicine and Chiropractic and continues to run an active practice 1 week a month, which he refers to as his “real world laboratory”. His patient successes continue to inspire him, and those around him, to co-create the systems that enable broader access to the resources he has found so valuable.

With Health Coach® and its sister company NutriScan®, Dr. Percival continues his role in developing and teaching systematic approaches, enabling health and fitness professionals to deliver better care to those they serve.

Dr. Gregory Kelly is our V-P of Research and Development and Chief Medical Officer. Greg is considered by a growing number of health professionals to be the preeminent thinker in the field of integrative healthcare and in the understanding of functional human physiology. He has been a consultant to the nutritional supplement industry for the past decade and has more than 18 published articles (indexed on Medline) on various aspects of natural medicine, nutrition, and metabolism. He contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine, 2nd edition, by Murray and Pizzorno (published by Churchill Livingstone, 1999).

Dr. Kelly is a naturopathic physician (N.D.) and has taught courses on Advanced Nutrition, Doctor/Patient Relationships, Counseling at the University of Bridgeport, College of Naturopathic Medicine, and Sports Nutrition at Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine and Health Sciences.

With his strong research background, Dr. Kelly ensures that Health Coach ® and its sister company NutriScan incorporate the best scientific based recommendations leading to improved health care for our customers.

Dr. Richard Perryman originally joined Health Coach in 1994. It was immediately evident that he had a level of enthusiasm and foresight that was extraordinary. Since that time he has been leading the development of Health Coach Corporate Wellness Initiatives. In 2005 this led to his co-founding of our LifeStrive-Health Coach programs and what many believe to be the practical and innovative corporate wellness solutions that are required to transform the growing healthcare crisis in America.

It is Dr. Perryman's belief, and indeed the belief of the entire Health Coach team, that a shift to a more collaborative, health promotion and education focused, self-responsible health care model is not only logical, but is now driven by market forces that make it inevitable. The early adopters of this model will be corporations as the single largest stakeholders in healthcare.

David H. Haase M.D. is a co-medical director and serves on our Medical Research and advisory board. David has a driving passion to seek out and implement the most effective, safe, and evidence-based health-care solutions to proactively advance the health of those patients he serves. He has dedicated his life to being a leadership force within healthcare. David relentlessly advocates for others to experience the deep healing that can only come through foundational changes in the way one thinks, feels, believes, and acts.

Dr. Haase received his MD from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, and completed his Internship and Residency in Family Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. He is Board Certified in Family Medicine and Holistic Medicine, is a Board-Eligible Weight Loss Specialist through the American Board of Bariatric Medicine, and a Certified Nutrition Specialist through the American College of Nutrition.

With his extensive clinical experience in both Conventional and Integrative Medicine Dr. Haase understands the challenges that patients experience when making sustainable, meaningful, and foundational changes to their way of life for the betterment of their health and vitality. As the numbers of healthcare providers connected with our system grows, Dr. Haase serves to provide them with inspiration, education, and support to grow into the fulfilling and efficacious role of being a Health Coach.

Dr. Haase is currently the Owner, Medical Director, and Head Coach of the MaxWell Clinic for Proactive Medicine in Clarksville, TN, USA.

Along with an impressive list of post-graduate education and teaching experience Dr. Haase has earned our deepest respect with his ethics, intellect and insights. We are a better company for Dr. Haase's participation and input.
