From robot-assisted surgery (RAS) to revolutionary surgical tools, our surgical device experts work with our clients to shape the future of surgical technology.
Combining intuitive design and rigorous engineering with input from practising surgeons, we help you develop innovative, clinically feasible devices that provide better outcomes for patients and improved surgical workflows.
Team Consulting has a core group of consultants who specialise in the development of medical devices for use in surgery. Working closely with our network of surgeons, our passion is in developing surgical tools and technologies which meet real clinical needs, while effectively augmenting surgeons’ capabilities.
We collaborate closely with practising surgeons to tackle unmet clinical needs in minimally invasive surgery. Our in-house team has developed innovative solutions such as a low-cost, consumable device for effective laparoscope cleaning during procedures and a tool for rapid, safe haemostat delivery to control bleeds. By combining user-centred design with engineering excellence, we ensure instruments are intuitive, reliable and cost-effective, helping surgical innovators enhance outcomes and reduce complexity in the operating theatre.
With in house experts who have had hands-on experience developing complex surgical robotic systems, we understand the inherent requirements for effective tools that work with robotically assisted surgery. By combining rigorous engineering excellence with user-centred design, we help clients create surgical instruments that integrate seamlessly with robotic platforms, ensuring precision, reliability and intuitive use.
Working with NHS surgeons to MedTech start-ups, we’ve developed immersive training solutions and effective surgical planning applications built on mixed and augmented reality. Our UX and software experts apply leading design principles to ensure intuitive interfaces and engaging experiences, built on robust software designed to process clinical data with precision.
We help clients design reusable instruments that meet the demands of modern surgery. Drawing on input from our network of surgeons, we create tools with improved ergonomics and sustainable materials, reducing waste without compromising performance. Our approach balances usability with durability, focusing on minimising disruption to existing surgical workflows while building in modern, user-centred design.
From supporting start-ups in developing novel approaches to catheter design, to a cost-effective solution for preventing catheter-acquired infections, we have in depth knowledge of catheter design and development. Our team combines clinical insight with engineering innovation to create devices that improve patient safety, usability and cost-effectiveness across diverse care settings.
We develop imaging solutions that enhance visualisation and accuracy during surgery. By integrating advanced optics and user-centred design, we help clients deliver systems that improve decision-making and reduce procedural risks.
We work with surgical innovators to create tools for rapid, safe haemostat delivery in laparoscopic surgery, enabling surgeons to control bleeds efficiently. Our design approach prioritises ease of use, reliability and cost-effectiveness, supporting better outcomes in minimally invasive procedures.
Our team supports innovators in developing delivery systems for targeted therapies, ensuring precision and safety. We combine deep technical expertise with clinical insight to create solutions that improve treatment efficacy and patient experience.
With extensive experience in surgical oncology, we’ve worked on technologies from tumour-sensing systems to cryoablation devices. Our applied scientists and engineers help clients develop solutions that improve accuracy, reduce invasiveness and enhance patient outcomes.
We understand the clinical, technical and commercial realities of surgical device development. Our in-house team of multidisciplinary experts help you bridge the gap between human factors usability, digital connectivity and technical innovation within the operating room, to create market-leading solutions built for users and designed to deliver.

During the innovation process we draw on specialised expertise from practising surgeons within our clinical network, to ensure your technology is both clinically feasible and solves real user needs.
From augmented reality to advanced surgical planning, we work at the cutting edge of surgical technology to create advanced solutions for the modern operating theatre, built on rigorous reliability engineering and user-centred design.
We work with clinicians throughout the design process, putting your device in the hands of practicing surgeons to develop a solution that integrates seamlessly with existing workflows and augments surgeon capabilities.
Medical devices must comply with strict regulations and be safe for patients and the medical staff using them. Our ISO-13485 accredited process and 40 years of experience ensures this happens.
Oscar Mackay works with Team’s clients to develop surgical devices and procedure-led technologies, supporting projects from early concept through to design development, usability, verification and transfer to manufacture.
His experience helps teams navigate the practical challenges of surgical workflow, human factors, technical feasibility and development risk, turning promising ideas into products that are safer, more intuitive and more commercially viable.
We thrive on helping surgical innovators develop technology to solve un-met clinical needs. Get in touch today to find out how Team could add speed, rigour and innovation to your surgical device development.
