The founders of Tenamark have one goal-to ensure the power to control a patient's healthcare experience is in their hands. It all began in a patient exam room in rural NW Ohio. Four founding members met years’ prior working with an orthopedic group. It wasn’t until the father of one of the founders broke his hip that it became very personal. My dad recovered fully, but the complexity of the process and the realization of the struggles he would have faced without my years of professional experience left a lasting impression. The founders vowed to apply their insider knowledge to create tools to put power in the patient’s hands. Tenamark’s first product, Your Total Hip and Knee Replacement Guide, was born in 2019. People spend their whole lives seeking out, developing, and demanding change. Tenamark is here to support them in applying these same values to their healthcare experience because it’s personal.
