What Kock + Voeste does

KOCK CONSULTING GmbH (formerly Kock + Voeste GmbH) is a Berlin-based, family-owned management consultancy founded around 1995 that serves physicians, dentists, and Medical Care Centers (MVZ) across Germany. Over 30 years it has completed more than 14,000 consulting mandates, and reports that 85% of clients increase profits with an average profit uplift of 65% within one year. The firm operates as a sub-50-person boutique with a single Berlin headquarters and delivers services on-site at client practices, remotely via video/telephone, and in office.

The company's core offering is a portfolio of professional consulting services spanning the full practice lifecycle: practice founding and acquisition, business planning, location analysis, regulatory approval, billing optimization (BEMA, GOÄ/GOZ, HVM/HVV), practice management, financial consulting, team development, patient communication, and MVZ founding/feasibility. Service is delivered by senior human consultants applying a proprietary systemic methodology; the firm has no disclosed technology platform, software product, or AI/ML capabilities. Thought leadership is built through five published specialized books and active content marketing on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and a corporate blog.

The revenue model is professional services: project-based engagements and retainer arrangements with individual practices and MVZ operators, with a free initial consultation as the entry funnel. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm is privately held with no external investors and no funding rounds. In 2025 it rebranded from Kock+Voeste to KOCK CONSULTING, and ownership passed from founder Stephan F. Kock (deceased June 27, 2025) to Jonas Kock as Managing Director.
