Our Story

If you or a loved one are thinking about or scheduled for surgery, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We can help!
How it works
Consult with our medical experts
We help you identify your risk factors for surgical complications. Let's collaborate to get you strong before surgery - no need to wait until you start rehab after surgery.
Support every step of your journey
After preparing a pre-operative plan, we give you small, manageable tasks through digital reminders that will help you achieve an excellent surgical outcome.
Get back to your best life
Our goal is to get you back to doing the things you love. We will carefully tailor a post-operative plan that minimizes chances of complications and remission.
Why SURGly?

SURGly uses a HIPPA Compliant bidirectional, multi-lingual, multi-channel platform (SMS text, email, snail mail, phone calls and nano-sites) to provide your patients with the right (brand-able) message at the right time.
