In this month’s episode of Medtech Talk, host Geoff Pardo speaks with Rodney Perkins, M.D., serial medtech inventor and founder of several companies, including Collagen Corporation and Laserscope. Perkins delves into his extensive history as one of the industry’s most prolific and successful entrepreneurs whose inventions have helped shape many medical specialties. Perkins discusses what drew him to medicine and medtech, how to navigate the challenges of starting new companies, and why being aware of your own skillset is important to the growth of a company. He also offers advice on how to handle the stresses of entrepreneurship, including his own “entrepreneur’s survival kit” of self-care and understanding your limits.
