Emerging Leaders

Catherine Grant is CEO of ExperCARE, a company she co-founded in 2009. An honors graduate of The Medical University of South Carolina, with a Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies, Grant has more than 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry. She loves to teach and has served as PA faculty as well as a business mentor and leader. In 2018, Grant was recognized by the American Academy of Physician Assistants as a Distinguished Fellow for her leadership, distinction in healthcare management, community service, and contributions made to the profession.

In 2019, Grant was named one of Savannah Magazine's New Guard: "the next generation of innovators, entrepreneurs, artists and all-around changemakers who make the city better through prowess — and the utmost professionalism". In 2020, Grant was selected as South Magazine's Face of Entrepreneurship, for her success as "an innovator and trailblazer in healthcare" as well as one of United Way of the Coastal Empire's "Women Who Rule" for being a local leader and difference-maker in the community.

Under Grant’s leadership, ExperCARE has grown from one clinic to multiple locations across the Greater Savannah area, opening its 7th location next to Kroger in Rincon.  Since opening doors in 2009, ExperCARE has won numerous awards, including Business of the Year, Best Urgent Care, Best Walk-In Clinic, Best Customer Service, Top Places to Work, and Best Occupational Doctor. To this day, ExperCARE continues to be voted Best of the Best in each of the communities it serves. 

Remaining connected to her community roots is a huge priority for Grant. She serves on the Downtown Development Authority for the City of Richmond Hill, raised a record breaking $62,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association’s, Georgia Chapter in 2015, spear-headed the first annual Warriors for William 5k and Fall Fest in 2013, raising over $60,000 for childhood cancer, and chaired the 2017 Bryan County Campaign for United Way of the Coastal Empire, breaking the all-time fundraising record for Bryan County at the time. Grant is grateful to continue to be involved with many local non-profits and inspires her team to give-back through a various collaborative initiatives throughout the year.

Grant is a devoted wife and mother of three girls who not only loves business and medicine, but has demonstrated  success in strategic vision, teambuilding and executing the extraordinary customer experience in multi-site healthcare.   She is committed to creating solutions, challenging the status-quo and leaving things better than she found them. When she’s not innovating, motivating and leading in the business arena she might be found ballroom dancing, diving with great whites, or adventuring with her family.
