Testimonials and Success Stories

"As the CEO of Healthtex, I needed an A-team for our US expansion plans. That team is now in place, led by Mike and has already exceeded our expectations. I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Mike one-on-one for close to a year now, and it has been a delight. Not only is Mike’s DTC expertise, and our genuine collaboration invaluable for our successful launch, but his passion and belief in what we are going to achieve makes a huge difference"
