Specialized IT for Healthcare Practices. Digital Growth for Everyone Else.
Trailhead Solutions is a husband-and-wife team delivering concierge managed IT to independent medical and dental practices in Knoxville and East Tennessee — and full-service digital marketing to small businesses ready to grow. We go deep so you don’t have to.
Your Practice Runs on Complex Tech. We Make Sure It Actually Runs.
Generic IT providers don’t understand why a 3D panoramic x-ray takes five minutes to load or why an outdated server puts you out of HIPAA compliance. We do. This is all we think about.
After-hours Windows Server 2022 upgrades. Your practice is ready Monday morning, no disruption to patients or staff.
Zero DowntimeMulti-terabyte imaging transfers optimized. Sidexis, XVWeb, and bitewing sensors stabilized across your entire network.
3D/2D Pano ReadyEnterprise VPN, encrypted remote access, automated threat scanning, and redundant failover backups built to spec.
HIPAA CompliantDeep integrations for Dentrix, Dolphin, Eaglesoft, and Denticon. Upgrades that don’t break your peripheral hardware.
DSO-Level SupportA Concierge Technology Partner.
Not Just an IT Vendor.
Most managed IT providers were built for 100-person companies. We built Trailhead differently — a deliberately small, high-touch practice that fits the way modern healthcare offices actually work. Our clients are independent practices with 3 to 25 employees who want a single, reliable technology partner that knows their environment and picks up the phone.
- Direct line to your engineer — no rotating tier-1 helpdesk between you and the people who built your environment.
- HIPAA built in, not bolted on — every retainer includes full compliance management: risk assessments, BAA tracking, MFA, encryption verification, and workforce training.
- Local on-site response — headquartered in Knoxville, serving Knox County, Blount County, and the broader East Tennessee corridor. Same-day dispatch for critical incidents.
- Strategic partnership — quarterly business reviews, roadmap conversations, and honest counsel on which technology investments are actually worth making.
Foundational managed IT for small practices. 24/7 monitoring, automated patching, endpoint protection, encrypted backup, and business-hours helpdesk.
Complete managed IT with HIPAA compliance built in. Everything in Trail Watch plus full compliance management, annual risk assessments, after-hours support, and quarterly vCIO reviews.
Concierge IT with strategic leadership. Everything in Trail Guard plus 24/7 emergency support with a 15-minute SLA, annual penetration testing, and advanced security operations.

A Husband & Wife Team.
One Shared Mission.
We started Trailhead because we saw a gap — healthcare practices running cutting-edge clinical equipment on outdated, under-supported IT infrastructure. Tristan brings deep engineering experience from inside the dental industry, including time at Henry Schein. Ashley brings the marketing and client strategy. Together, we’re a full-service partner for practices and small businesses who need more than a generic IT ticket or a cookie-cutter social media plan.
