CHICAGO, Ill., Jan. 25, 2022 – The Aspen Group (TAG), today announced Jeri Doris will join the company as Chief Human Resources Officer.

This strategic new hire comes on the heels of the company’s rebrand, reflecting its extraordinary growth and expansion into new consumer healthcare categories, including dental implants, medical aesthetics and urgent care. As TAG continues to build its network of 1,100+ local offices and grow its 18,000+ team members across the country, the employee experience remains central to the organization’s mission to bring better care to more people.

“I am thrilled to join The Aspen Group at such a pivotal moment in time for healthcare,” said Jeri Doris, Chief Human Resources Officer for TAG. “TAG is revolutionizing the consumer healthcare model by empowering local offices, doctors and teams to meet people where they are in their communities. The organization’s focus on career development, training, collaboration, and mentorship closely aligns with my commitment to developing a workplace environment where our teams thrive and deliver on our vision.”

POWERING GROWTH BY FOCUSING ON PEOPLE

She will also work with HR leaders across TAG’s four businesses – Aspen Dental, WellNow, ClearChoice and Chapter – to develop a consistent HR vision across the organization.

“Fundamental to our values is this idea of expanding access to care – and that starts with listening to our team members, learning what’s happening on the ground, and understanding how we can grow our teams to meet those needs,” said Bob Fontana, chairman and CEO of TAG. “With a deep passion for helping organizations grow and scale, Jeri has a proven track record of leveraging talent, creating systems that empower people to lead from every seat, and fostering a culture that drives innovation.”
