About the Author

WEB GOLINKIN has focused his career on making health information and care more accessible and affordable. He has done this as CEO of five companies over the past 35 years, including three he co-founded.

These companies include the largest cable TV network devoted to health (America’s Health Network), one of the nation’s largest operators of retail-based clinics (RediClinic), a leading population health management company (Health Dialog), and one of the nation’s largest operators of urgent care clinics (FastMed). Web also co-founded the Convenient Care Association and served as its Chair for many years. He has been widely covered in the national media and has spoken at numerous healthcare conferences.

Web recently joined Babson Diagnostics as its President. Babson is a science-first company that has succeeded (after a decade of R&D) in doing what Theranos tried and famously failed to do – offer a broad menu of clinically accurate tests from a fingertip blood sample.

A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard, Web grew up in New York City and Long Island but has lived in Houston since 1988, so he is almost a Texan. A longtime runner and fitness enthusiast, Web enjoys tennis and golf—as long as he can walk and carry his bag. Web has been married to the same extraordinary woman for 40 years, and they have two amazing sons who make him proud every day.
