Preceptis Medical

Preceptis Medical is a Golden Valley, Minnesota medtech company that makes the Hummingbird Tympanostomy Tube System (TTS), an FDA-cleared handheld device that lets ENT surgeons place pediatric ear tubes in the office in about five minutes using only a topical anesthetic - no operating room and no general anesthesia. By combining the multiple tools of a traditional tube procedure into a single-pass instrument, Preceptis aims to make a very common childhood surgery safer, faster, and dramatically less expensive for families and payers.
