ADVENT is a medical practice that treats nose, sinus, snoring and sleep apnea concerns. The company offers services such as The Breathing Triangle evaluation, in-office CT scans, at-home sleep studies and customized treatment plans.

Dr. Madan Kandula MD and Gwen Kandula AuD, co-founders of ADVENT, explain that ADVENT’s growth “is determined by the number of patients (it) serve(s).” Between 2018 and 2019, ADVENT added three new locations and more than 65 new employees. However, its growth means that Advent needs to maintain its standard as it grows and ensure that it delivers the same quality of care regardless of number of patients.

Looking forward, ADVENT has opportunities to continue growing. The Kandulas say that “(i)t’s not about being everything to everyone, rather providing specific solutions for those who have felt dismissed.”
