Welcome to Zimmer Australia
A Message from Mr. John Cooper, Vice President, Australia and New Zealand
The launch of this 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 surgical products.
