Built by a surgeon

Edward M. Bender, MD, FACS
I'm a retired cardiothoracic surgeon with over 45 years in the OR, including service on the Stanford University School of Medicine faculty as Clinical Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery. Alongside operating and training residents, I've spent 15+ years building software for surgeons and trainees — from cardiac risk calculators to resident-evaluation apps. Scrub Prep grew out of that same instinct: give students the fast, reliable case prep I wish I'd had walking into my own first cases.
Designed and clinically tested by a retired cardiothoracic surgeon.
