Vituity CEO One of 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives

Emeryville, CA – Vituity is proud to announce that Imamu “Mu” Tomlinson, MD, MBA, was recognized by Modern Healthcare as one of this year’s 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives. The complete ranking and profiles of the honorees are available in the June 21 issue of Modern Healthcare.

The recognition program acknowledges clinicians working in the healthcare industry who are deemed by their peers and an expert panel to be the most influential in terms of demonstrating leadership and impact. Dr. Tomlinson was selected in part due to his trailblazing leadership in 2020, during which Vituity significantly expanded its scope of care delivery via virtual care models and deployed its clinicians to one of the hardest hit areas of the country in the early months of the pandemic. In addition, Dr. Tomlinson formed and serves as President of Vituity Cares, a charitable foundation dedicated to improving the health of underserved communities and addressing inequality and inequity in healthcare.

“This is a testament to the work we do at Vituity every day to meet the needs of our patients and improve their health and quality of life.”

This award is Dr. Tomlinson’s second major award recognition in 2021, following his acknowledgement as one of Fierce Healthcare’s Most Influential Minority Executives.

“I am humbled and honored to be recognized by Modern Healthcare as one of this year’s 50 Most Influential Clinical Executives” said Dr. Tomlinson. “This is a testament to the work we do at Vituity every day to meet the needs of our patients and improve their health and quality of life. Thank you, Modern Healthcare, for this honor, and thank you to my amazing Vituity family for joining me on our mission to make healthcare better for all.”

“The 2021 class of 50 Most Influential Clinician Executives did not shy away from the challenges of caring for patient populations during a pandemic. They found inspiration in knocking down hurdles and fighting for top quality care for their patients and staff,” said Modern Healthcare editor, Aurora Aguilar. “They improved cancer screening outcomes by incorporating in-home test kits and secured more diversity for future clinician ranks. Modern Healthcare congratulates this class and appreciates their hard work.”
