Bridgetech Asia Limited's ("BT Asia") vision is to gain financial success
through promoting the greatest social good in Asia by providing every consumer
access to the world’s best predictive diagnostic technology. There was a reason
for our initial focus on oncology solutions. Our values and our mission are
based upon the vision and experience of our founder Herbert Yao-Sing Wong, PhD.
Cancer does not discriminate. We know. Herbert passed away on June 19, 2006
after a prolonged battle with lung cancer. Herb was in the prime of his life.
He was 53 and never smoked.
Herbert was born in Hong Kong in 1952. He left his homeland in 1973 to attend
college in the United States. By 1980 he had obtained his PhD from the
University of California, Santa Barbara. He served as Executive Vice President
of the Santa Barbara Applied Research, Inc. from 1981 – 1986. He was the Group
Vice President of American Medical International, Inc. from 1986-1990. In the
1990’s Herbert was the founder of Quantum Solutions, an international management
consulting and training firm. It was later purchased by Columbia/HCA Healthcare
Corporation.
From
1992-1997 Herbert worked for Columbia/HCA as the Senior Vice President of Strategic Development, a Member of the Executive Management Committee, and Chairman of the technology steering committee. At that
time, Columbia/HCA was an international healthcare company with 289,000 employees, 360 hospitals, 150 surgery centers, and 600 home health agencies. Herbert was the driving force
behind Columbia's strategic vision which profoundly impacted the way healthcare was delivered in the United States. Herbert was the chairman of Health Answers and founder of United Premier
Medical Group, which partners with Johns Hopkins International in providing obstetric and gynecological services in major Chinese cities.
BT Asia was Herbert’s idea, it is our honor to
implement his vision. He was our mentor, he was our friend. This quest is personal for us. We will touch lives through our success in the marketplace. Herbert’s legacy will endure.
