Nearly 60 years ago, when Dr. Homer Stryker, an orthopaedic surgeon from Kalamazoo, Michigan, found that certain medical products were not meeting his patients’ needs, he invented new ones. As interest in these products grew, Dr. Stryker started a company to produce them. The company’s goal was to help patients lead healthier, more active lives through products and services that make surgery and recovery simpler, faster, and more effective.

Today, Stryker Corporation is a worldwide leader in the medical industry. Company growth has come from offering an unparalleled variety of high quality, innovative products and services and from the dedication of each of the company’s employees.
