About Bruce

After becoming a world-renowned expert on hernia repair, inventor, professor, and chief of general surgery, Dr. Ramshaw was shocked to discover just how unsustainable and broken healthcare had become. Driven by a desire to improve his division, he discovered an overwhelming set of deep structural problems. Instead of becoming jaded, he looked to the principles of Systems Science rooted in theoretical physics for solutions. Through bold innovation and the use of small teams, Dr. Ramshaw has pioneered a new approach that delivers better outcomes for patients, with a larger mission in mind: to share sustainable solutions that improve healthcare for everyone.
