Start a conversationWhat we do
Healthcare initiatives fail in the gap between the boardroom, the laboratory, and the ward.
We work in that gap: organizational work, done with clinical fluency. Our current focus is individualized therapeutics, treatments designed and made for one patient.
Coordination
Complex-care coordination
Non-treating coordination of care pathways that cross institutions and jurisdictions: sequencing, manufacturing and laboratory supply chains, specialist input from overseas centers, and the handovers between the clinicians, scientists and executives involved.
Governance
Research governance & ethics submissions
Protocols, ethics committee submissions, consent materials, data management plans and the agreements that sit around clinical research, from first draft to approval.
Delivery
Program & project management
Structured planning and delivery of healthcare initiatives: governance, risk and dependency management, stakeholder coordination, and reporting that keeps decision-makers informed.
Implementation
Change & implementation support
Workflow mapping, documentation, vendor liaison, and rollout support: the unglamorous work that determines whether a good plan becomes a working reality.
Diligence
Clinical due diligence
Independent clinical assessment of health technologies and care organizations for investors: how a product meets real clinical workflows, what adoption will demand, and where the clinical risks sit.
Karpas Clinical Advisory LLC provides advisory and project management services to organizations. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment or clinical services.
Karpas is an old word for spring greenery, the first, deliberate growth of the season. It is a fitting emblem for how we work: nothing ornamental, everything cultivated with intent.
We take on a small number of engagements and stay close to the detail. We write things down. We tell clients what we see, including when it is inconvenient. And we measure our contribution the only way that matters in delivery work: by what is actually operating, adopted, and durable when the engagement ends.
About
Led by a clinician who moves between the clinic and the advisory table.
Dr Justin Karpas is an Australian-trained general practitioner, a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, now based in Los Angeles and working on the operational side of medicine: due diligence, program delivery and the governance that sits around clinical research.
His career has moved deliberately between the clinic and the advisory table. It began in the hospital system, in surgical, general medical and geriatric registrar roles (wards, theater lists, acute medicine), before a move to Quantium, a data-analytics consulting firm, within its health and government practice, contributing to engagements for state and federal health departments, a major private health insurer, and a medical device company. He then returned to the front line in general practice, adding the outpatient world to his hospital grounding.
Throughout, he has advised venture investors on the clinical merits of emerging health technology, due-diligence work he continues on a selective basis today.
In 2026 that experience turned to building pathways for one patient where none existed: coordinating the care of critically injured survivors of the Bondi attack, including specialist input from overseas centers, and now coordinating an individualized RNA therapy program in Australia as a non-treating coordinator.
Karpas Clinical Advisory brings the full span of that experience, hospital and primary care, analytical consulting, investor-grade assessment and program coordination, to clients in Australia and the United States.
