At Instinct Science, we believe in leading with compassion. Our team, our customers, and their patients and clients are the foundation of everything we do. Our culture is guided by our U.C.A.R.E. values, which serve as our daily compass:

• Customer First: We’re our customers’ (and this profession’s) biggest fans. We put them first and obsess over helping them solve their challenges.
• Act with Grace, Not Teeth: We treat people with kindness, humor, humility, and assume good intent. We ask what we would want if we were in the other person’s shoes.
• Right Things, Right Reasons: We take ownership of all tasks, big and small. When we make mistakes, we own them, fix them quickly, and learn.
• Excellence is in our DNA: We hold ourselves and each other to high standards because our work is too important to do otherwise.
