- Text size
DOHA: Chris Goodman has joined Virgin Health Bank as its Director of Operations. Goodman has held senior roles in leading stem cell storage and biopharmaceutical companies in the USA where he's been involved in storing more than of 30,000 stem cell units and contributed to 40 successful stem cell transplants.
Goodman use his experience to help develop Virgin Health Bank's cord blood banking services in Qatar, the wider GCC region and globally.
One of his first priorities will be opening the new stem cell processing and cryogenic storage facility that is currently under construction at Qatar Science & Technology Park in Doha.
Said Goodman: "I'm very pleased to join Virgin Health Bank at such an exciting time in its development. Our goals include helping families to make informed choices about cord blood banking and providing them with high quality services."
"We also aim to provide real hope to those individuals afflicted with treatable genetic diseases. The medical community commonly refers to our business as "family banking", but in my eyes it really means something very different; it means that our clients are our family. We care about every family that stores their child's stem cells with us and if they have a need, Virgin Health Bank will be there to help them in any way we can," he added.
