Company Overview

Synergy Spine Solutions is a medical device company focused on improving the quality of life for patients undergoing spine surgery. We develop motion-preserving technologies designed to treat degenerative disc disease while supporting the spine’s natural curvature. Our flagship product, the FDA-approved Synergy Disc®, features a built-in 6-degree lordotic core designed to not only preserve motion but also improve sagittal alignment.

FDA approval of the Synergy Disc is supported by clinical evidence generated through a rigorous prospective clinical study conducted under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) in the U.S. The company also has over 10 years of clinical experience with the Synergy Disc outside the United States in more than 10 countries, where the device has been commercially available and implanted in thousands of patients.

Our Vision

The Vision of Synergy Spine Solutions is to identify and commercialize innovative spine technologies that help surgeons improve their patients’ quality of life and advance the standard of care.

Our Mission

The Mission of Synergy Spine Solutions is to increase the use of the Synergy Disc around the world, successfully execute the clinical and commercial pathway for approval in the United States and deliver innovative, complementary products that address unmet clinical needs.

The Synergy Spine Solutions’ Leadership Team has a proven track record of success with building medical device companies, markets, and creating significant shareholder value.
