Our story

Fiosmeans knowledge, in Gaelic.

Founded on the belief that clinical expertise should be available to patients every day, not just during appointments.

By combining world-class orthopaedic innovation with advanced AI, we make it possible for care teams to guide patients continuously, at scale. Backed by the University of Auckland's cutting-edge research, from biomechanics motion capture to the AI & Wearables Lab, Fios Health is reshaping the surgical experience.
