Austin, Texas – Babson Diagnostics, a science-first healthcare technology company, today announced the addition of a clinical advisor who will bring valuable insights of the medical community in the ongoing development and introduction of the company’s new diagnostic blood testing service, BetterWay™.

He also has extensive experience in the areas of new healthcare delivery models, healthcare information technology, and medical informatics.

Babson’s BetterWay blood testing reimagines diagnostic testing - from collection to sample preparation to analysis. Requiring only a pea-sized capillary sample from a finger, BetterWay is designed to eliminate the need for collection of large tubes of blood for analysis while maintaining medically accurate results clinicians and their patients can trust.

Dr. Carroll will join Babson at industry events, trade shows, and clinical meetings. He will also assist in assembling a clinical advisory board to support the company in embedding clinical best practices.

Dr. Carroll is the founder, owner and medical director at Atembis LLC in Chandler, Arizona, where he is focused on providing cost-conscientious  care for patients who are not eligible for federal or state insurance benefits. 

“Effective care starts with having the best health information about your patients and much of that critical data comes from blood testing,” Dr. Carroll said. “I love collaborating with innovative companies like Babson who are focused on making health easier for all.”
