INDIANAPOLIS, IN / ACCESS Newswire / May 1, 2026 / WellBridge Surgical is pleased to announce the appointment of Tom Valentine as President, effective April 28, 2026. Valentine brings more than 30 years of leadership experience, with a proven track record of building high-performing teams, fostering strong partnerships, and driving sustained organizational growth.

Throughout his career, Valentine has developed a reputation for combining strategic vision with hands-on leadership.

"I'm looking forward to applying my professional experience while guiding Wellbridge into a scalable and repeatable model as we grow.

I could not ignore the calling to lead." - Tom Valentine
