Jim Talbert

Director

Mr. Talbert's initial exposure to medicine was as a Navy Corpsman, E5, attached to the U.S. Marine Corps Air Station, Quantico, Virginia.  From his tour of duty, he knew that he wanted to work in medicine and has been involved in healthcare ever since his discharge. 

With an undergraduate degree in Bio-Chemistry his first work was in pharmaceuticals with A.H. Robins and, then after one year, into the world of medical devices.  Mr. Talbert worked as a Richards Mfg. Otology Specialist at teaching institutes in Virginia and North Carolina and from there progressed into total joints and spine surgery.  He personally knew and received training from Sir John Charnley and Prof. Eduardo R. Luque, MD which helped expand his clinical and surgical understanding of total joint and spine procedures and was further enhanced with domestic and international business development opportunities in France, England, Germany, Venezuela, and Brazil. 

He remains constantly diligent looking for strategic partnerships to improve patient outcomes with innovative technologies .

His  # 1  Gallup's CliftonStrength is Strategic, followed by Connectedness, Restorative, Positivity, and Includer.
