MENLO PARK, Calif., Jan. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Patient Square Capital, a dedicated health care investment firm, announced today that Adam Fliss has joined the firm as a Founding Partner and General Counsel. The addition of Mr. Fliss, who is deeply experienced in law, private equity and health care, will help advance Patient Square's goal of investing in and partnering with great companies that improve patient lives.

Mr. Fliss will become the third Founding Partner of Patient Square, joining Jim Momtazee, Managing Partner, and Maria Walker, Founding Partner and Chief Financial Officer. Prior to Patient Square, Mr. Fliss was the General Counsel of TPG Capital, the private equity platform of alternative asset firm TPG.

I am honored to be joining Maria and him in building Patient Square Capital."
