Episode 13
Friday, 14 November, 2025
In this episode of Beyond the Drip, we sit down with Marc Stranz, PharmD, one of the most influential voices in the infusion pharmacy world. With a career spanning five decades, Marc shares a rare inside look at how sterile compounding and home infusion have evolved—from the early days of parenteral nutrition to the multi-billion-dollar specialty infusion landscape we know today. Marc recounts his beginnings in sterile compounding, the launch of his first home infusion company in the early 1980s, and his leadership roles across national providers including Coram, Bioscrip, and BioMatrix. He also discusses the formation of Stranz Crossley Inc., the consulting firm he cofounded in 2018 that now advises manufacturers, wholesalers, insurers, investors, and providers across the specialty and infusion sectors. Through stories, lessons, and industry insights, Marc reflects on the innovations that shaped infusion pharmacy, the importance of mentorship and collaboration, and what future leaders should prepare for as the field continues to evolve. Whether you're in infusion pharmacy, home infusion, specialty pharmacy, or broader home-based care, this conversation offers invaluable perspective from someone who helped build the industry.
