Healthcare operations, made human.

Healthcare Operations Manager

I'm Nikhila (Nikki) Mamanduri, a healthcare operations leader focused on AI-enabled operations, workflow transformation and scalable care delivery. I hold a CAHME-accredited Master of Healthcare Administration from the University of New Haven, a B.Tech in Biotechnology from Lovely Professional University, and PMI's Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM).

Today I lead the launch and stabilization of a physician-supervised weight-management clinic for Medi-Weightloss® in the Los Angeles area — mapping patient journeys, writing SOPs and building the dashboards that connect patient access, clinical care, GLP-1 workflows and growth. Before that I ran administrative operations at Tufts Medicine and U.S. Renal Care, and started my career as a Product Executive at Relisys Medical Devices in Hyderabad.

Better systems. Stronger teams. Better patient experiences.
