– USA, CA – TurnCare, Inc., a leading medical technology and services company dedicated to advancing how hospitals manage high acuity patients, today announced the addition of Dr. John Milligan (Ph.D.) to its Board of Directors.
About Dr. John F. Milligan
Dr. John Milligan, a seasoned industry veteran, played a pivotal role in growing Gilead from an early-stage private company into a multi-billion-dollar business with a global footprint. His contributions and expertise include the development of breakthrough new therapies to address healthcare epidemics like HIV and HCV, driving major acquisitions to create unique industry solutions, and scaling Gilead to over $21 Billion in worldwide sales with a market cap of $85 Billion. With his experiences, Dr. Milligan has seen firsthand what impact transformational therapies can have on hospital economics.
Dr. Milligan is currently the Chair of the Board of PacBio (Nasdaq: PACB), Executive Chair of the Board of 4D Molecular Therapeutics (Nasdaq: FDMT), and Chair of the Board of Aiolos Bio (privately held).
Dr. John Milligan said: “TurnCare reminds me of Gilead in the early days: we came together with a single-minded focus to make a meaningful difference for patients with unmet medical needs. Early on, we set an ambitious goal to create new medicines that would allow for the long-term control of HIV infection and help reduce the devastating impact on patients’ lives and the huge financial burden on the healthcare system. As an investor, I have been following TurnCare closely for the last two years and I see a big opportunity to use our innovative proprietary technology to help avoid the circulatory system degradation common in today’s high acuity, immobilized patients. The TurnCare solution provides hospital nursing teams an important tool to efficiently manage these patients, preventing adverse events like pressure injuries and mobilizing earlier so patients are healthier and stronger when discharged, saving hospitals time and money. I look forward to helping Kim and the TurnCare team execute and expand their vision for patient care.”
