About Us

Access1 Solutions is a medical device product realization consulting group with our core competency in early stage innovative spine and orthopedic technologies. We specialize in working directly with physicians, startups, and universities to help advance their ideas at any point in the product lifecycle from concept through commercialization and beyond. Our combined experience spans over 45 years of product development and medical device ventures.

We’ve managed countless medical device projects from concept through commercial launch and into post market support. Beyond product development, we have a strong understanding of all of the complex considerations that must be made when building an early stage medical device company. We’d love to take a look at any potential projects you may have and see if there is a good fit for our cross functional capabilities.
