Blaine Warkentine, MD
MD and serial builder in orthopedic technology. I turn clinical insight into commercial healthcare systems — most recently, bringing personalized surgery to the U.S.
Head of US Sales & Business Development, custoMED
Building the U.S. commercial engine for custoMED (customed.ai) — the AI operating system for personalized surgery: a scan becomes a patient-specific plan, guide, and implant in minutes. Also co-founder of Parvizi Surgical Innovation with Dr. Javad Parvizi, and founder of the SolvingHealth ecosystem below.
custoMED — the AI operating system for personalized surgery →Track record — builder, not just advisor
Three healthcare M&A exits — InVivoLink (HCA Healthcare), PumpOne (Anytime Fitness), Disior (Paragon 28) — and I was in the room for each. I build the category, the system, and the commercial motion, and I sell it to surgeons in their own language.

The thesis I build on
Prediction is a commodity; the act is the moat. In musculoskeletal care, personalization only wins when it's tied to a measured, value-based outcome — so I build the whole episode: personalize the surgery, measure the function, get paid on the value, and let AI run the operational efficiency. That's the future of MSK care, and it's what I'm assembling.
