Vision
Redefining better in orthopaedics and spine surgery
'Our vision to improve the care and well-being of orthopaedic and spine surgery patients around the world stems from both experience and passion. Our surgical innovations and surgeon education programs focus on getting patients back to their healthy, active lifestyles, without forgetting both the environmental and societal impacts of the products we create”.
Mission
From Minimally Invasive Surgery to Personalized Medicine and beyond
“Medacta’s mission is to transform the patient experience by advancing surgical approaches, implants and instruments through responsible innovation and meticulous design. We follow the experience of my father and our Founder, Alberto Siccardi, whose own journey as a patient convinced him of the importance of pioneering a new approach to joint replacement.
Our innovation began with minimally invasive techniques and has evolved into personalized solutions for every patient. Today, we employ cutting-edge technologies such as 3D printing, invest in medical education, research and development, and collaborate with surgeons and universities worldwide”.
