Senior Quality Assurance Specialist

The journey for a patient with a brain tumor is deeply emotional. Newly diagnosed patients often arrive at the emergency department due to changes in vision, balance, or cognitive function. Their world is quickly turned upside down as they race towards surgery. Unfortunately, many patients (~50% for glioblastomas) experience recurrence within a few months and, along with their dedicated family members and clinicians, must navigate treatment options once again.

It has been over a decade since an innovative treatment option was cleared by the FDA—until Gamma Tile® Therapy!

GT Medical™ Technologies exists to provide a better option for these patients, caregivers, and clinicians. Guided by our Shared Values of Empathy, Empowerment, and Excellence, we strive to make a meaningful difference. Our Corporate Purpose is to Improve the Lives of Patients with Brain Tumors, and this mission drives us daily.
