Lynda Brown-Ganzert is CEO of RxPx. The company is the 2022 merger of the company she founded, Curatio, which was a support system for rare disease patients, with RxMx, a complementary service that helped clinicians manage patients on treatment or clinical trials. Lynda says that somehow I inspired the merger! (Although I don’t remember it, nor did she send me my 10%!). Now the company is supporting rare disease patients, funded primarily by pharma, across the globe. Lynda gives a full demo of both the clinician and patient experience–coordinating meds, labs, imaging, appointments, content, symptoms, patient reported outcomes, peer and coach support, and more. And she discusses how a great PE takeover works. (Not all of them are!)–Matthew Holt
