About VIRMED

Company History

The project begun as a personal development hobby in last 2005. Over the course of 4 years the project took shape over time into a complete demo-able framework. At this point development has become increasingly complex and time consuming for a single person. Hence a company was formed to help establish collaboration and funding opportunities to carry development to the next level. The company is located in Quebec, Canada. It was founded in 2009; however the project was under development since 2005 on a hobby basis. I current primary work is medical simulation for surgery. However we are also trying to pursue other medical related opportunities.

We are currently looking into funding to create a work force that can take projects full time.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide the following:

  • To provide complex specialized training and skills improvement to surgeons, doctors, medical students and Nurses with a desktop training simulation.
  • Provide cheaper medical care through reduction of insurance costs for hospitals.
  • Improve recover time by planned pre-operative training simulations.
  • Provide medical expertise remotely over great distance (tele-surgery)
  • Improve medical training for 3rd world countries by providing expert specialized doctors creating virtual surgical training scenarios.

Vision

Our vision is that surgical training based simulation will become a standard in the future similar to flight training system today for airline pilots. Also improved training in surgery will reduce insurance cost and make medical care more affordable and reduce pre-operative surgical recovery times.
