Imagine swallowing a robotic pill that can navigate your body and diagnose health issues without the need for invasive procedures. What if this tiny device could revolutionize medical diagnostics and treatment? This isn’t a scene from a sci-fi movie—it’s a reality brought to life by groundbreaking advances in medical technology.

In this week’s episode, sponsored by Physician Growth Accelerator, we’re joined by Torrey Smith, co-founder and CEO of Endiatx, the innovators behind PillBot. Starting his career as an aerospace engineer, Smith was inspired by sci-fi classics to pivot his expertise to the medical field, where he’s focused on creating less invasive diagnostic tools. We explore Torrey's fascinating journey to developing medical devices that could one day operate autonomously inside the human body. The conversation dives deep into how Endiatx is blending advanced robotics with medical science to enhance patient care and potentially extend human life spans.
