My credentials: Adobe Certified Magento + Hyvä developer. Ten years shipping regulated B2B medical-supply ecommerce: FDA UDI, DSCSA, DEA Schedule II, IV, HIPAA, EDI 850/855/856/810, IQ/OQ/PQ validation environments. Same playbook for dental distributors selling to single-chair clinics and 50-location DSOs alike. Reviews on Upwork above. Free 30-min consult is the cleanest way to test fit, no upsell.
