Our solutions center on leveraging technology to cultivate and connect a global network of buyers and sellers, while also pushing on cutting edge models that simultaneously extend the life of medical equipment and supplies and return value back to healthcare facilities. I look forward to continuing to build upon the great success at AA Medical with the incredible team, our partners at Shore Capital, and our Board of Directors."

Matt Nelson, Chief Executive Officer of AA Medical since 2012, will assume the role of Chief Technology Officer, overseeing the company’s continued development of its technology solutions, marketing efforts and equipment acquisition strategy. “With the significant growth of our business over the recent years, we are entering the next phase of evolution of our company. Jay’s track record of experience across healthcare and his approach to building high-performing teams in parallel verticals will be hugely impactful at AA Medical as we look to maximize our impact and extend our reach,” said Nelson.
