Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (TMCI) is a leading medical device company committed to revolutionizing the orthopedic technology space through a patient-centric approach. Founded in 2014 by med-tech veteran Dr. John Treace, the company is based in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, with a significant national presence.
TMCI is particularly acclaimed for its innovative, patented Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™ procedure, which addresses three-dimensional deformities of moderate to severe bunions. This pioneering technology has not only catapulted TMCI to the forefront of the orthopedic industry but has also brought substantive advancements to foot and ankle surgical practices.
The foundational philosophy of TMCI revolves around addressing the root causes of orthopedic deformities rather than merely treating the symptoms. This approach, underpinned by robust clinical research data, drives the development of intelligent surgical solutions that allow improved patient outcomes.
TMCI’s Lapiplasty® System has made a significant impact in the industry, offering surgeons an innovative way of treating bunions by focusing on the tri-planar nature of the deformity. Traditional bunion surgeries often lead to surgical failures and patient dissatisfaction due to their inability to address the three-dimensional aspect of the deformity. Contrarily, the LAPIPLASTY® Procedure corrects the bunion in all three planes, virtually eliminating the chances of recurrence, reducing surgical time, and enabling quicker patient recovery.
Beyond technological innovation, TMCI prides itself on creating educational platforms that expand clinical knowledge in the orthopedic space. They host peer-to-peer surgeon training workshops across the country and various digital platforms that provide real-time surgical assistance.
TMCI’s robust FDA-approved product portfolio, advanced technology, patient-oriented approach, and commitment to physician training sets it apart in the rapidly growing orthopedic industry. As TMCI continues to advance, it reinforces its commitment to transforming the orthopedic landscape, significantly improving the quality of life of millions of people suffering from orthopedic deformities around the globe.
