For device companies & distributors
The Surgeon Adoption Accelerator
Train surgeons on your fixation systems anytime, anywhere — without the cost and complexity of cadaver labs.
THE 4-MINUTE BRIEF
Why MIS adoption stalls — and how Cadara Foot fixes it.
Dr. TJ Ahn explains the surgeon adoption problem from inside the operating room — and walks through what Cadara Foot solves for device companies and their reps.
See it in action. Then let's talk.
THE CADAVER LAB TRAP
Complexity kills adoption.
MIS bunion and hammertoe fixation systems are getting more sophisticated. More precise. More effective.
But the more advanced the system, the more training surgeons need before they're confident using it in the OR.
If they're not confident, they don't adopt. They stick with what they know — and innovation sits on the shelf.
Cadaver labs are the traditional answer. They work. I've led over 45 of them and trained 1,500+ surgeons. But they're expensive, geographically limited, and your reps can pitch your system in the office — they can't demonstrate it.
Every day a surgeon isn't trained on your system is a day they're buying from someone else.
THE LIBERATION
Wherever your reps go, training goes with them.
Cadara Foot turns every rep into a trainer — anywhere your reps go, surgeons train.
Reps become trainers
Your reps walk into an office with a training model in their bag. No facility required. No biohazard protocols. Surgeons make incisions, feel the burr feedback, and place your fixation system on the spot.
Cadaver-level fidelity
Two years in development. Tested with leading MIS systems. Radiopaque bones under fluoro. Silicone skin that cuts like real tissue. Joint capsules with realistic resistance. Proprietary gel that forms authentic bone paste.
Less than half the cost
A single cadaver leg costs more than twice what a Cadara Foot unit costs — before facility fees, biohazard disposal, or regulatory overhead. Faster adoption. Lower training cost. Scalable across your entire surgeon network.
LET'S BUILD THE PARTNERSHIP
Real collaboration. Win-win partnerships.
We're looking to work with device companies and distributors who see surgeon adoption as the strategic priority it is. If that's you, let's have a conversation.
