Our Mission
MedCure is dedicated to providing best in class service to donors, families, researchers, and educators. Our goal is to be an industry leader and to maximize the selfless gifts of our donors in the pursuit of future medical advancements. We accomplish this through a continuous improvement culture and a can-do attitude while ensuring our quality, privacy and ethical standards meet or exceed regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
Independently Owned Since 2005
MedCure was founded in 2005 with the goal of creating a better tissue bank. From the beginning, our mission has been to provide top-quality anatomical specimens for medical research and education while maintaining the highest professional and ethical standards toward our generous donors. By striking this balance, we can assist in the vital work of advancing the science of medicine and ensuring patient safety.
Since its opening, MedCure has expanded into a nationwide program, covering a larger acceptance area than any other body donation company in America. We have facilities in St Louis, MO and Orlando, FL, in addition to our surgical training centers in Henderson, NV, and Portland, OR. Each of our locations maintains voluntary accreditation through the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB) in order to best serve our donors and the medical community.
Despite our growth, MedCure remains a small, privately owned company headquartered in Portland, OR. Our dedicated and professional staff share a passionate commitment to providing the highest level of service to both the donors who make our work possible and the talented researchers and educators who transform their generous gifts into tomorrow’s medical advancements.
