If the recent pandemic seems to be the evident answer, Dr Harry Leider, who has been working with telemedicine for over a decade, argues that COVID doesn’t bear the sole responsibility for its exponential rise. From the various types of telemedicine companies to the limitations they face, learn from Gelesis's Chief Medical Officer in this interview with Cristian Owen.
Harry L. Leider, M.D., M.B.A.joined Gelesis from Walgreens, where he was Chief Medical Officer and Group Vice President and provided executive leadership for the Company’s unique platform to impact the six million customers who visit a Walgreens store each day, as well as the two million customers who interact with Walgreens digitally. Prior to joining Walgreens, Dr. Leider served as Chief Medical Officer and Senior Vice President of Ameritox, a national specialty laboratory providing medication monitoring services to physicians treating chronic pain and serious mental illness.
