A.wordsmith continues to shine in October's feature article spotlighting Oregon Entrepreneurs Network Entrepreneur Member stories. Frank Lau, MD, FACS is no stranger to the art of the pivot. Early in his professional life, Dr. Lau traded credit derivatives for a bulge bracket investment bank, helping grow their assets under management by billions of dollars.
