This is the largest investment in talent Commercial Banking has made to date in the Healthcare Banking group, which provides industry-specialized banking services and advice to middle market companies across the Healthcare Services, MedTech, and BioPharma sectors of the for-profit Healthcare industry.

“Our investment in talent is a proof point of Wells Fargo’s commitment to supporting healthcare businesses with specialized expertise, products, and services.

“Healthcare Banking is a priority sector for Wells Fargo. We will continue strengthening our team to bring our full capabilities to clients so they can deliver better outcomes and drive efficiencies in this essential U.S. industry,” said DuBose.

Augmenting the expansion of the Healthcare Banking team, Eric Pashley recently joined Wells Fargo’s Equipment Finance team as a Specialty Lending market leader, focused on healthcare equipment financing.
