BOSTON, MA (PRWEB) JANUARY 21, 2016
SpineFrontier (http://www.spinefrontier.com) announced today that Jerry Goldstein, Founder and former CEO of Advanced Magnetics (AMAG), has joined the SpineFrontier Board of Directors. Jerry is a pioneer in the MRI industry. He started AMAG in 1981 and took the company public in 1986. AMAG is best known for its MR imaging agents and iron deficiency therapeutics.
“Jerry’s experience will be extraordinarily valuable to our company over the next few years. We are looking forward to his guidance in preparing and taking our companies public,” said Dr. Kingsley Chin, CEO of KICVentures and SpineFrontier. 
Goldstein has four degrees from MIT: a B.S. in materials science, an M.S. in metallurgical engineering, a Metallurgical Engineer’s Degree and an M.S. in management.
“SpineFrontier, with its focus on LES (Less Exposure Surgery), is uniquely positioned to take advantage of the growing movement toward outpatient surgery. Dr. Chin’s techniques allow patients to walk out of spine surgery within hours,” said Jerry Goldstein. “The LES movement is helping to lower costs, improve patient recovery times and put surgeons back in control of patient care. I’m excited to be part of this.”
