In 1992, Gregg D. Scheller and Kurt Gampp, shared a common goal-to furnish retinal surgeons with U.S.-manufactured, high quality, precision-made microsurgical instruments. Up to that point, retinal instruments had not been successfully manufactured in the U.S. Due to the deficiency of trained personnel with the precise, almost watchmaking-like skills required to make microsurgical instruments, most vitreoretinal microsurgical instruments were requested from European countries where the language and time barriers made for a long delivery process.
Beginning operations in Gregg’s garage, Synergetics was formed. Benefiting from the accessible and abundant creativity and innovation of American surgeons combined with modern manufacturing techniques, Synergetics found its calling. No longer was it necessary to have microsurgical instrumentation made elsewhere. The vision the co-founders shared had come to pass.
Synergetics had found a receptive market—one which was ripe with new ideas. It was a golden opportunity for a newcomer who was able to respond quickly to the needs of its market with innovative designs to implement the latest surgical techniques.
Kurt Gampp, himself an instrument maker, instructed the first employees in the fine art of microsurgical instrument-making. Through his patient tutelage over the years, Synergetics has developed the finest group of instrument makers in the industry. With its wealth of knowledge and experience and with its commitment to customer satisfaction, Synergetics has experienced phenomenal growth.
Although 13 years have passed since its humble beginnings in a garage, the dedication to quality and service has not changed. Synergetics has since expanded its focus to include neurosurgical instrumentation and equipment as well as its established retinal line of products.
The foundation of Synergetics lies embedded in the company’s belief that we can always improve on what came before. The Synergetics name has become synonymous with cutting-edge technology as evidenced by its growing list of patents and patents pending. Today, the Company owns in excess of 17 patents, furthering our belief. Synergetics currently has more patents pending than ever before, and we expect that trend to continue.
