The five Principal Investigators are Board Certified Medical Doctors with a combined total of over 40 years of clinical trials experience, specializing in internal and gastrointestinal medicine and OB-GYN.

Experience

Our investigators participate in phase I-IV outpatient clinical trials in many therapeutic areas and device trials. We conduct our clinical trials to ensure timely completion as well as high-quality and accurate work. Our team continually exceeds sponsor expectations of integrity, subject enrollment goals, and human protection in addition to expeditious delivery of accurate evaluable data. The organization consistently monitors its team and work performance seeking room for improvement and growth. Our goals include team collaboration to improve the care of our patients and aid in the rapid availability of new, cutting-edge treatments to our patients and the community.
