About Us
Keele Medical started at the height of the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020 to help establish covid testing routes for the populations that needed it most. As the company expanded within the diagnostic testing industry, we sought out innovative devices that could better our healthcare system. This led our CEO to an introduction with Dr. Raouf Guirguis, a serial inventor and scientist renowned world-wide for his past inventions. They shared the same vision on some of the current problems healthcare faces and they decided to join forces; an experienced and well credentialed scientist/inventor and an energetic young entrepreneur. Working together, we believe we have tools that will reshape diagnostic testing as a whole in the coming years- making diagnostic healthcare more accessible and affordable throughout the world.
