Dr. Joe Dugger: A Physician Committed to Change
With years of experience in the medical field, Dr. Joe Dugger has witnessed firsthand how traditional healthcare systems fail truck drivers. From high costs to limited accessibility, the roadblocks drivers face in maintaining their health are staggering. Dr. Dugger, a strong advocate for preventative care, knew there had to be a better way.
A Background Rooted in Healthcare Innovation
- A board-certified physician with extensive experience in primary care
- Passionate about providing direct, patient-focused healthcare
- Advocate for alternative healthcare models that reduce costs and improve access
Dr. Dugger saw the inefficiencies in traditional insurance-based healthcare and recognized the potential of Direct Primary Care (DPC) and telehealth services. His goal? To offer trucking professionals access to quality healthcare without the bureaucracy and excessive costs of traditional health insurance.
Hope Zvara: A Wellness Leader for the Trucking Industry
As the CEO and Founder of Mother Trucker Yoga, Hope Zvara has spent years helping truckers improve their well-being through movement, mindfulness, and health education. With 15 years of assisting thousands in pain prior to trucking, Hope knows firsthand the broken healthcare system and status quo preventative wellness offerings most are dealing out. After studying with amazing mentors and taking courses and certifications with Gray’s Institute, Anatomy Trains, Leslee Bender, and Katy Bowman, and logging more than 20,000 hours of study in mindfulness, yoga, and functional movement space, Hope wanted to help a population who really needed it. With a deep understanding of the blue-collar lifestyle and the challenges drivers face daily, she knew that healthcare and preventative medicine/wellness needed a complete overhaul.
