Corbin Clinical Resources is expanding its commercial organization with the hiring of Ken Knudson, as CEO, as well as David Tanksley and Rich Tourtellot as Senior Vice Presidents of Sales.

Ken was instrumental in leading the commercial development and expansion as the Executive Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing for six years. He started his medical device career at BSC in 1995 and held several senior management positions before joining CR Bard as the Vice President of Sales of the Electrophysiology division, which was acquired by BSC in 2013. Ken held the role of VP of Sales Force effectiveness for the international franchises of CR Bard while living in London, England, for three years.
David Tanksley and Rich Tourtellot bring with them a combined 45 years of experience with sales and senior management positions in the medical device industry.

Prior to that, David was Vice President of Sales at Salient Surgical Technologies and Rich was a Director at Intuitive Surgical, Inc.
“Our company is so dedicated to providing patients with a better, safer prostate biopsy. I’m honored to bring on this incredibly talented and experienced team. Their deep knowledge of the urology market will be invaluable in furthering the adoption of the PrecisionPoint™ Transperineal Access System.” said inventor and founder Dr. Matthew Allaway, who will remain as President and Chairman of the Board.
“I am thrilled to be joining Dr. Allaway and his team to accelerate the adoption of this life changing technology. Our success will be measured by our ability to virtually eliminate the unnecessary risk of infection and sepsis after a routine diagnostic treatment. We will be able to increase cancer detection rates by generating better tissue samples and reduce the over prescription of antibiotics that is required for TRUS (transrectal ultrasound biopsy)” said Ken Knudson, incoming CEO.
