Volume 1, Issue 1 May 1, 2015 A Note from the President New Providers Rick Grindrod Teizu Wolokolie, M.D. President, Five Star Physicians Chief Medical Director, Five Star Physicians New Vice President of Business Development Our company is poised for great opportunities in the coming months and years ahead. We have been through a significant amount of change, and we have all learned a great deal from each other, our patients and our long term care partners. We have added some “top notch” outside help during this transition time in Mark Hunt and Chris Johnson. I take great pleasure in announcing that El Harris joined the Five Star team as the Vice President of Business Development. El was formerly the President of PrevMED, a Dental Case Management company serving the long term care communities in six states including Maryland. Nine years ago, El was one of PrevMED’s first employees, serving as a Business Development Executive, and helped to grow their business to serve almost 400 nursing homes with annual revenues of $18M. His entire career has been focused on business development in both the I.T. and Long Term Care communities. El’s primary focus at Five Star will be to work with each of you to build existing facility relationships, as well as grow our services into new long term care communities. You can expect to hear from El over the next few months as he gets to know the most important part of Five Star, you. Please join me in welcoming El to the team.
