Our Story · 2022–2026
Created within the hospital, for the patient.
During his medical residency in otolaryngology, Dr. Vinicius Nickel faced a daily, real-world problem: patients who urgently needed endoscopy but couldn't be moved to the equipment.
Between 2022 and 2024, they developed a portable endoscopic camera, implemented it in clinical routine, tested it with 16 specialists, and published the results in two scientific journals. Today, Go Scope is an award-winning startup, with a registered patent and undergoing ANVISA/INMETRO certification.
Mission
To facilitate medical practice by offering quality equipment and specialised technical support, enabling faster patient care with organisation and excellence, wherever needed.
Vision
To popularise endoscopic examination, making it easier for doctors to perform and access, ensuring more precise and safer diagnoses for the patient.

Go Scope's involvement from the initial regulatory drafts for equipment certification, their knowledge of ANVISA technical standards, and their experience working with the Ministry of Health are key factors for Go Scope's projection into the public sector, where there are more legal barriers and difficulties for expansion.
