Synchrocare

What Synchrocare does

Synchrocare, LLC is a Cincinnati, Ohio-based medical device distribution company incorporated in 2005 that operates as an authorized distributor of FDA-approved devices sourced from approximately twelve manufacturer partners. Its portfolio spans orthopedic fixation (including Diamond Orthopedic's faceted threadform screws and OSSIO biointegrative implants), spine (SurGenTec), extremity surgery (Extremity Medical), orthobiologics and regenerative medicine (Geistlich Orthoss bone graft substitute and Chondro-Gide collagen membrane for cartilage repair), and related surgical specialties. The company explicitly does not develop proprietary technology; its value proposition rests on curating clinically acceptable, FDA-cleared devices, providing clinical education and in-service training, and offering compliance-credentialed field representation across hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), group purchasing organizations (GPOs), and integrated delivery networks (IDNs).

The company sells through two channels: company-employed or contracted medical sales consultants who cover the Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana core market, and a franchise network of independent owner-operators that is being rolled out nationwide. Franchisees receive access to the curated product portfolio, comprehensive compliance training (AdvaMed Code of Ethics, Stark Law, Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Act), back-office support, and the national purchasing power of the network. Synchrocare operates two revenue streams: transactional margins on distributed medical devices and franchise fees/royalties from the licensed operator network.

The company is privately held, has no disclosed institutional funding, and is led by Reza Yazdian, J.D., as Principal Managing Partner. Strategic activity in late 2025 and early 2026 has accelerated materially, with the franchise program launch and four new manufacturer distribution partnerships (Field Orthopaedics, Diamond Orthopedic, BioPoly, and Elsevier) signed in quick succession, alongside state-by-state franchise recruitment in Alabama, Iowa, Mississippi, Georgia, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Pennsylvania. The company is actively transitioning from a regional distributor to a national, franchise-enabled distribution platform.

Broad incumbents

• McKesson: McKesson Medical-Surgical is one of the largest U.S. medical-surgical product distributors, serving hospitals, IDNs, GPOs, and ambulatory care providers. It operates across virtually every product category Synchrocare touches but at vastly greater scale, and serves as the benchmark incumbent in medical device wholesale.
• Cardinal Health: Cardinal Health's Medical segment distributes medical, surgical, and laboratory products to hospitals, ambulatory care, and other healthcare providers nationwide. Comparable to Synchrocare as a multi-channel medical product wholesaler, though operating at dramatically larger scale with a much broader portfolio.
• Henry Schein: Henry Schein is a major distributor of medical, dental, and animal health products serving office-based practitioners, ASCs, and integrated health systems. Comparable to Synchrocare in delivering medical supplies to clinical end-customers via a specialized distribution model, though with much larger scale and a deeper sales force.
• Medline Industries: Medline is one of the largest privately held medical supply manufacturers and distributors, selling medical-surgical supplies, gloves, textiles, and devices to hospitals, surgery centers, and GPOs. Synchrocare competes at the distribution layer with a much narrower, specialty-focused portfolio.
• Owens & Minor: Owens & Minor is a Fortune 500 medical products distributor serving hospitals, GPOs, and the federal government with medical-surgical supplies, patient-direct solutions, and supply chain services. Synchrocare is a focused, niche alternative to Owens & Minor's broad-line distribution offering.

Direct peers

• Concordance Healthcare Solutions: Concordance Healthcare Solutions is a mid-market medical, surgical, and laboratory product distributor serving hospitals, GPOs, IDNs, and ambulatory surgery centers. As a more focused, multi-channel medical products wholesaler, it is one of the closest structural peers to Synchrocare's core model.
