Mark Hirschhorn joins the board of Tapestry Telehealth
STRATFORD, Conn., April 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Tapestry Telehealth has added Mark Hirschhorn to its Board of Directors. As the CFO and COO of Teladoc Health from 2012 to 2019, Mr. Hirschhorn helped to transform telemedicine into a widely acclaimed healthcare delivery system. He led the company to revenue of more than $400MM in 2018.
Following his success at Teladoc, Mr. Hirschhorn was named CFO at ArisGlobal, where he helped orchestrate the sale of ArisGlobal to Nordic Capital in a deal valued at $800MM. An accomplished leader in the medical/investment field, Mr. Hirschhorn brings valuable expertise to the board of Tapestry on the heels of their successful Series A fundraising effort.
"Tapestry's ability to complete a significant fundraising effort in such a short period of time underscores the strength of the company, its product, its business plan and its management team," said Mr. Hirschhorn. "I'm excited to be joining Tapestry when they are so well positioned to begin a significant growth curve and I'm looking forward to helping them achieve their very aggressive goals."
