Revolutionizing Breast Cancer Screening with Ryan Polselli of MammoLink

from The Entrepreneur's Logbook: Lessons from Growing Businesses · host Zachary Bernard

In this episode of The Entrepreneur’s Logbook, Zachary speaks with Ryan Polselli, founder and CEO of Mammolink.  Dr. Polselli, a fellowship-trained breast radiologist from Emory University and former Navy nuclear officer, shares how he left the traditional hospital system to reinvent breast cancer screening with a fully patient-centric, mobile platform. Over just three years, he bootstrapped Mammolink into a team of 90, performed more than 55,000 tests across five mobile units, and earned a perfect 5.0-star rating across nearly 2,000 reviews.  From partnering with Fortune-level employers like Walmart, Amazon, Costco and Royal Caribbean to pioneering RAIN, Mammolink’s AI-driven same-day ultrasound for women with dense breast tissue, Ryan walks us through the strategies that fueled this rapid growth.  Ryan and Zach dive into the hard lessons of building a winning team, “hire fast, fire faster”, and why investing in top talent is non-negotiable for any founder. They explore how true patient centricity means obsessing over every touchpoint, from the bus driver greeting patients on-site to delivering results by day’s end. By removing barriers like scheduling headaches, surprise bills and long waits, Mammolink has doubled screening compliance rates and, in some workplaces, boosted them from 30% to 60%.  Finally, Ryan offers a glimpse into Mammolink’s unique data advantage, observing patients in their “natural environment,” applying AI to biology, behavior, access and outcomes, and how those insights could reshape the future of early detection.
