In this episode of Medsider Radio, we sat down with Cary Vance, CEO of PhotoniCare. The company's FDA-cleared OtoSight™ Middle Ear Scope is a clinical diagnostic tool that offers a non-invasive and comprehensive assessment of middle ear fluid.

Cary is a proven medtech leader with over two decades of experience across large strategics like GE Healthcare and Covidien, and nearly 11 years as CEO of six different startups, including Titan Medical and Hansen Medical where he drove commercialization, fundraising, and M&A opportunities. He's been the Chairman, President, and CEO of PhotoniCare since May 2023.

In this interview, Cary shares why clinical evidence, workflow efficiency, and financial viability are the three pillars of medtech success and how he prepares for launches and M&As from day one.
