Frequently asked questions
Q: How often should surgical tables, exam tables, and procedure chairs receive PM?
A: Many devices benefit from at least annual PM; high-use OR tables and procedure chairs often warrant semiannual checks. We tailor intervals to OEM guidance, usage, and risk.
Q: Do you service ophthalmic, ENT, and OB/GYN procedure chairs?
A: Yes. We maintain and repair a wide range of specialty procedure chairs, including controls, memory presets, rotation locks, and upholstery.
Q: Can you reupholster chairs and match our facility colors?
A: Yes. We offer medical-grade vinyls in many colors, heat-sealed seams, and foam options. We can often match existing palettes.
Q: Will I receive documentation suitable for accreditation surveys?
A: Yes. You’ll receive detailed service reports, PM labels, calibration notes (where applicable), and asset records aligned with compliance needs.
Q: What if parts are discontinued?
A: We source OEM or equivalent high-quality parts when available and provide repair or replacement options when components are end-of-life.
Q: Can you help decide between repair and replacement?
