For Sponsors & CROs
Research that happens inside a practice patients already trust — led by a physician they already know, supported by technology built to keep them cared for from the first visit to the last.
Why MedX
A study succeeds or fails on whether people say yes and then stay. That depends almost entirely on who is asking, and how well they already know the person in front of them.
Our principal investigator didn't arrive with the research program. He built the practice that hosts it, and has cared for these families for years.
Coordinators and operations staff who have run studies end to end, working daily alongside the physician rather than reporting to a distant office.
Cypress, Spring, Tomball and greater west Houston — one of the most varied patient populations in the United States, in the conditions where research is moving fastest.
Every person we speak with is living with a condition and hoping for a better option. That is the whole reason the study exists, and we run it that way.

Principal Investigator · Founder, Creekside Family Practice · Clinical Assistant Professor, UTMB
A board-certified family medicine physician who has spent his career treating the exact conditions our studies address — diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular and metabolic disease — for the same families, year after year. He teaches the next generation of physicians at UTMB, and his practice's standing in the community is a matter of public record.
Our Model
We don't build a research site next to a practice. We build it inside one. That single decision changes everything downstream — and the chain ends somewhere that matters.
The study lives where people already come for care, run by the physician who already knows them.
The conversation comes from someone they trust, in a place they already visit. Continuity through the final visit follows naturally.
Visits kept, questions answered, records complete. Careful attention to each person is what makes the data hold up.
Treatments proven in a community that looks like the country actually work for that country.
The order matters. Quality data isn't something you extract — it's what you get when people are looked after well enough to stay. Everything sponsors care about sits downstream of that.
Capabilities
We use modern tooling, including AI, across four areas. Not to process people faster — to make sure the right people hear about a study that could help them, and are supported well once they join.
Helping our physician and coordinators recognise who among the people already in their care might benefit from a study — so the offer reaches someone it could genuinely help.
Keeping visits on track and questions answered, so joining a study never becomes another thing someone has to manage alone.
Study visits that run the same careful way every time, no matter who is on shift or how busy the week has been.
Quality checks built into every visit, so what reaches the sponsor is complete and accurate — and the conclusion drawn from it is one people can rely on.
We're deliberately not publishing how any of this works. What we will say: every clinical and eligibility decision is made by our physician and study staff, and no one is ever contacted about a study that couldn't plausibly help them.
