Advanced Surgical was established in 1990 and was focused mostly on Obstetrics and<br />
Gynecology. The company was started with out investment or capital and had to consider many<br />
different avenues of business development to remain competitive during all the changes taking<br />
place in the medical market. The company now does approximately 1.5M in annual sales. The<br />
company is owned solely by Kathy Stewart.Advanced Surgical has recently moved to Mammoth<br />
Lakes a resort community and focuses on marketing by phone and internet.During our beginning<br />
years, we attended many OB/GYN & Plastic Surgery trade shows nationally and were sourced by<br />
medical buyers to supply all equipment and surgical instruments related to this field. We also<br />
handled many hard to find speciality items and surgical instruments for all specialities.When the<br />
healthcare industry started to change in 1992, we responded to that change by listening to our<br />
existing customers and researching the needs of potential customers in our related field. There<br />
was a common need developing that we decided to follow; this need was a “Single <strong>Source</strong>”. We<br />
were pro-active in our new company identity and started to import our own products under our<br />
own label and joined a buying group giving us the same buying power as McKesson, Ownes &<br />
Minor, Baxter and General Medical.Advanced Surgical has open accounts with close to 300 key<br />
manufacturers which include, Welch Allyn, Tycos, Midmark, Pelton Crane, Conmed, Burton,<br />
Abbott Labs, Invacare, Miltex, Imex, Zimmer, Tidi, Sherwood, Smith & Nephew companies and<br />
many more. Advanced Surgical now provides buyers with a “Single <strong>Source</strong>” for all medical<br />
equipment, surgical instruments (our own brand) and some disposable supplies mostly related to<br />
the equipment we sell. This “Single <strong>Source</strong>” service covers fully remanufactured equipment that<br />
has a biomedical certification and all varieties of new equipment. We will do all the research work<br />
on pricing and sourcing for our customers. We also interact with different personel in hospitals<br />
and surgery centers to help the materials manager with colating different needs and desires from<br />
various departments and staff. This saves our customers a great deal of time and expense and<br />
this function is performed quickly and at a low cost. The County of Los Angeles procurement<br />
division found after an intense study that there is a 15% savings when purchasing from a single<br />
supplier instead of multiple suppliers.Some of our key customers are, Kaiser, Veterans<br />
Administration, Department of Defense, UCLA, U.C. Irvine, University of Chicago at Illinois,<br />
County of Los Angeles (USC, Harbor UCLA, King Drew Medical Center, Women’s & Children’s<br />
Hospital and High Desert Hospital), Indian Health Service, USAID and World Bank. Customer<br />
