A Quiet Force Behind Some of Medicine’s Most Cutting-Edge Innovations

If you've ever had a procedure involving lasers, catheters, or ultrasound in a modern clinical setting, chances are you've come into contact with the work of Mr. Giba, though you may never have known it. As the founder and President of Eclectic Medical Consulting, Giba is one of those rare minds in the medtech world who bridges visionary design with the gritty reality of R&D execution.

A seasoned expert in medical device development, Giba’s resume reads like a blueprint for how innovation should happen in healthcare. Before launching his consultancy, he served as the Director of R&D for several startups, where he not only built devices but also established the teams and strategies behind them.

He’s primarily known for his mastery of medical laser delivery systems, think YAG, Holmium, and Excimer, and their integration with fiber optics. But that’s just scratching the surface. From porcine heart valves and vascular grafts to arthroscopy, urology, ophthalmology, and cardiology, Giba’s fingerprints are on critical designs that have shaped multiple medical disciplines.

Giba doesn’t just develop devices, he patents them. With a dozen patents to his name across neurology, ultrasound, and other fields, his contributions are deeply ingrained in the very DNA of modern medical technology.

His work at Zynergy Cardiovascular and Eclipse Surgical deserves special mention. At Eclipse, he helped lead the development of two distinct laser-based percutaneous TMR systems, moving from concept to FDA submission and first-in-human trials in just six months. That’s not just fast; that’s unprecedented.

He also directed electrophysiology programs and spearheaded groundbreaking research in cardiac rhythm management alongside Dr. Ray Ideker at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, work that pushed the boundaries of what’s possible in EP labs.

Academically, Giba brings both a scientific and pedagogical edge. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from California State University, Fullerton, a Master of Arts in Educational Technologies from California Baptist University, and credentials in both teaching and educational administration from the State of California.

In an industry that often moves cautiously, Mr. Giba is a rare catalyst, quietly reshaping the landscape of medical technology through invention, insight, and relentless execution.
