Welcome to Zimmer Australia
A Message from Mr. John Cooper, Vice President, Australia, New Zealand and
India
The launch of our new website demonstrates Zimmer Australia’s ongoing
commitment to provide our customers with a high standard of service. The
website aims to provide local information of interest to orthopaedic
surgeons, neurosurgeons, registrars, hospital staff, caregivers and
patients.
Since the 2003 integration of Zimmer and Centerpulse, our
goal has been to ensure that customers benefit from the combined strength
of the two companies. As a result, Zimmer Australia now has an even more
extensive product portfolio, greater combined research and development
capabilities and remains committed to providing excellent service.
As
the population in Australia increases in age, the demand for high quality
orthopaedic and spinal products also increases. Patient expectations are
greater, as access to information raises awareness of the products and
surgical techniques available. Not only do arthritis sufferers want
relief from pain at a younger age, there is an expectation that the
surgery will return them to an active lifestyle more quickly, and for
longer. In recent times, Zimmer Australia has more than doubled its sales
and customer service teams to manage this increasing demand.
As a
part of the global team, Zimmer Australia will continue to be a forerunner
in innovation and design to ensure customer expectations are exceeded.
Zimmer Australia will remain focused on improving the quality of life for
patients. Surgeons can feel confident in the quality of our products and
services and confident in our ability to provide training opportunities
for new surgical techniques.
We encourage you to take time to
review the information on our website. Not only is there patient specific
information about arthritis, preparing for surgery and hospital, there is
surgeon specific information about key products and new techniques. There
is also contact information for the Zimmer Australia management team and
portfolio experts including hip, knee, spine, trauma, upper extremity and
orthopaedic surgical products.
