Physician aims to link artificial intelligence with medical practices

As a former women’s health medical practitioner, Dr. Michael Dent is at his core a physician on a mission to save lives. But rather than treating patients individually, he’s out to save them on a global scale.

That was his goal when he founded Fort Myers-based NeoGenomics in 2002: helping to grow the cancer diagnostics lab company from a $300,000 capital investment into publicly held company with $277 million in revenue in 2018. He says his newest venture, Bonita Springs-based HealthLynked, has even greater potential.
