Facts

Since 1982 we have sold thousands of pieces of medical equipment to our world-wide clientele consisting of hospitals, medical clinics, surgical centers, diagnostic clinics, government healthcare entities plus individual healthcare practitioners in the United States and Canada as well as 32 other countries.

Our refurbished equipment is thoroughly remanufactured, retuned, aligned, tested and calibrated; not merely retouched and repainted as done by some of our competitors. Our highly trained and thoroughly experienced engineers and technicians rebuild the equipment to the specifications and standards of the original equipment manufacturer (O.E.M.).  The result is equipment which is functionally and therapeutically equal to new.
