Congratulations to Intellihealth on their rebranding as FlyteHealth. The updated name reflects FlyteHealth's focus on delivering high quality, cost-effective obesity care.  Obesity is increasingly being recognized as a complex and treatable chronic condition and long-standing expertise is critical to effectively treat it. That expertise is reflected in the physician leadership of Louis Aronne Katherine Saunders, MD Leon Igel, MD, FACP, FTOS, DABOM who oversee the delivery of this care at FlyteHealth.

Yesterday, Atlantic Health System held their innagural Innovation Summit. We would like to extend our gratitude to Doug Hayes, Gina-Marie Verrone, and the rest of the AHS team for their immense support. It was incredible to see the system’s thoughtful approach to innovation. 

We were lucky to have 6 portfolio companies in attendance and are continually blown away by their #impact and vision.✨
