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.
