"From the first time I saw Dr. Santhosh
Cherian pitch Medtrics at a Startup Lewisburg networking
event, it was clear that his depth of knowledge as a resident,
coupled together with a rare talent for user experience design was
a special combination. To have seen him and CEO Chris Tokodi grow Medtics from a prototype to a
successful company in our incubator has been rewarding and
inspiring, and they are poised for remarkable growth."

recognition from the Bucknell SBDC. Since inception, it has been

them utilizing our clinical expertise and user-friendly platform.
We're looking forward to a future full of new challenges and
opportunities for innovation."
