Matthew Penticuff 

Board Member and COO for Odyssey Wellness Inc.  
Matthew graduated from Indiana University with a degree in Biology and Psychology in 2017, and got his Master’s Degree at Ball State University in double concentration in Entrepreneurship and Health Care Administration in 2019.   I grew up knowing very early that I wanted to dedicate my life to helping others. While at Indiana University I was given multiple opportunities to see firsthand the various barriers and inefficiencies that plagued the healthcare system and became passionate about finding solutions. Pivoting from Pre-Med to Business I went on to obtain my MBA from Ball State University with a double concentration in Entrepreneurship and Healthcare Administration all the while building the framework for what would become Odyssey Medical Group. Rooted in a philosophy of ethical business I seek to balance modern technologies including telemedicine and AI with traditional medicine to expand access and services to patients going through their own unique medical journeys.
