William Gartner's Summary


William Gartner has founded a number of laboratory companies focusing on medical diagnostics and environmental marketing. Most recently, one of those companys developed a blood test for Alzheimer’s disease in collaboration with the Paul Fleischig Institute at the University of Leipzig. In the last year, Mr. Gartner founded Global Cancer Diagnostics Inc. to commercialize a blood test for lung cancer that detects the disease in Stages 1 and 2 when it can be treated with much higher survivability rates. Those efforts are coming to fruition with the planned introduction of the GCD Lung Cancer Test. The test will be sold through physicians and directly to consumers in the 27 states that allow DTC diagnostics. The most remarkable features are the ROC Accuracy of the test at 97.2% and its price at $99, eliminating the need for insurance reimbursement in most cases. With 43,000,000 current smokers in the U.S. alone who should receive annual testing, the market size is staggering.

In 2003, Mr. Gartner formed what became Provista Life Sciences to commercialize a highly accurate blood test for breast cancer. That company was sold in 2011 and now operates as Provista Diagnostics Inc. That company is now working toward FDA approval of the blood test for breast cancer.

Mr. Gartner’s arrival in Phoenix initiated his first divergence from the laboratory business with the design and sale of a complete range of golf clubs. His design of an early “utility club” called the Power Spoon, won an award from Golf Digest as the best new utility club of 1988. It made its first appearance in the Phoenix Open Silver Pro-Am that year.

In the years in Illinois and later in Phoenix, Mr. Gartner has owned 4 different laboratory companies with one, Acculabs Inc., becoming the largest private company contracted to many agencies in the federal government to analyze a wide variety of soils, grasses, animals, etc. to look for radiation residuals around facilities such as Pentax.
