ABOUT US
The Story Behind Our Success

SIS is a surgical instrument and device repair company that was founded by a veteran and former OR Nurse in 1971. Working alongside surgeons, he discovered the need for high-quality, customized instrumentation – laying the foundation for our company. Over the past 50 years, SIS has continued to expand and evolve with the medical industry and its ever-changing needs.

Our goal has always been to provide unparalleled service to healthcare facilities across the country. We pride ourselves on the personalized service we offer to each of our customers.

Every action we take is aimed at making your job easier – from the widest range of repair services, to doing the job right the first time, every time. Through continuous innovation, process improvement and an unwavering desire to be the best, SIS brings you the greatest value in repair services.
