Soskin’s LinkedIn page now lists his position as VP and GM for Structural Heart at the medtech giant. Nina Goodheart, SVP and president of Structural Heart and Aortic at Medtronic, shared the news of Soskin’s appointment on LinkedIn.

“Big news from our Structural Heart & Aortic team at Medtronic — Jorie Soskin has joined us as vice president and general manager of our TAVR and Congenital businesses,” Goodheart wrote. “His commitment to improving patient outcomes and raising the standard for care are welcome additions to our team and he’s already diving in meeting with our Medtronic team and physician partners across the globe.”

Soskin joined Medtronic through the company’s acquisition of CoreValve in 2009. The company’s current TAVR (transcatheter aortic valve replacement) offerings still bear the CoreValve name.

He has more than 15 years of experience within the cardiovascular space at Medtronic since that acquisition. Goodheart said he brings a “drive for innovation and strong track record of improving patient outcomes and access through focused execution of strategic business opportunities.

“I look forward to working alongside Jorie as he propels innovative excellence within our team,” Goodheart said.
