CIT Healthcare understands our business and has been a key partner in supporting our growth strategy and we look forward to continuing our relationship.”

David Malm, Senior Partner and head of Webster Capital’s Healthcare practice, said, “CIT’s experience and expertise in working with middle market private equity firms and their portfolio companies is unparalleled in the industry.
