    From our surgeon founders to our newest team member, we passionately believe in solving the problems of global surgical inequality with digital technology.

    Today there are 5 billion people without access to safe surgical services. Surgical disease causes more death worldwide than HIV/AIDS, TB and Malaria combined. Using digital technology we believe that we will enable surgeons to deliver safe surgical care for everyone. The Touch Surgery platform is an interactive surgical simulator for healthcare professionals; providing a realistic and detailed guide to every step of a procedure. Users can quickly learn surgery, instantly test their knowledge, and rehearse for surgery.

    The Family

    Our people make Touch Surgery special. The Touch Surgery family solve problems everyday in the name of our core mission to connect and empower the global surgical community. Yes - we call it a family because that's how we feel about everyone.

    At Touch Surgery we bring together smart and talented people from a large diversity of backgrounds, cultures and experiences. As well as being founded by surgeons who self-taught themselves to code, we have world-leading talent from the movie/visual effects industry (including some oscar winning movies), mobile, gaming and digital sectors.

    The Touch Surgery Lab is set near Old Street Station in a newly refurbished space. (We call it a Lab because we are continuously experimenting with better ways to do things). It's a great part of London, and right at the heart of the growing technology scene.

    If you decide to join us, expect to make friends that go beyond work, improve your table tennis skills, and learn new things everyday. All whilst making the world a better place :)
