Michael has a passion for innovation and technology which shines through in the services he provides. Michael has in depth knowledge and expertise about successful strategic product introduction in a fast moving health care market and is adaptable, hard-working and a real advocate for the product he is championing.

I had a pleasure of working with Michael at two different companies. In both situations I found Michael to be quite strong in his understanding of UK market especially when it comes to introducing a new medical device technology. Michael is very strategic in his ability to leverage clinical and technological advantages in developing and executing a successful sales and marketing strategy. When it comes to introducing a new medical device product/technology to the UK market I could not think of a more suitable individual.

Michael managed all the global reimbursement strategies and tactics with tremendous diligence. He was especially strong at managing relations with government decision makers and aligning KOL's with the clinical and reimbursement efforts. A true asset to any organization. Extremely reliable and trusted by all internal and external customers.

Michael first approached me, in my role of Innovation Gateway Manager at the NHS National Innovation Centre, about three years ago with a product which I immediately saw as offering opportunity to reduce costs to the NHS, change clinical and patient pathways whilst increasing patient and staff satisfaction and safety improvement measures.

Michael used his knowledge of NHS tariffs, Payment by Results and HRG coding to build a business case which assisted NHS trusts to understand and compare his technology to existing alternative technologies, which is one of the reasons why NHS trusts are adopting the technology and patients benefitting from it.

At all times Michael was professional in his dealings with both the NHS and the NIC. Indeed he has built up quite a following of my clinical colleagues!

I am sure Michael will continue to add value and benefit to the NHS and I am pleased to be endorsing his work

I have retained Mike to assist Glaukos Corp. in commercializing the iStent device in the UK. Mike has an extremely deep knowledge of the UK health care system and, more importantly, how to position new medical devices in order to increase and optimize utilization. Mike has extensive contacts within the key stakeholders and he can really make things happen. Mike is also a tireless worker, is extremely enthusiastic and creative and goes well beyond the call of duty to meet and exceed client needs. I have been extremely happy with what Mike has accomplished to date and feel strongly that his efforts will be key to our long term success in the UK market.
