Dropping Linvatec name?



















Are we really dropping the Linvatec name and just going with ConMed? Doesn't seem too smart to me...

Remember a few years ago when we dropped the Linvatec and Hall Surgical names from the AAOS booth banners. Doctors were walking by asking where the Linvatec booth was! What a fiasco!! Almost as bad as dropping the "Concept" name after the Zimmer / Bristol-Myers purchase.

Don't appreciate you masquerading as one of us. This is serious. You gave yourself up as an imposter when you said "doctors were asking for Linvatec booth." I have to fight everyday to get people to seriously consider my products and over look all the flaws in our poorly designed me too products. "Doctors asking where is Linvatec booth".... Trying selling your BS somewhere else because just like the poplok, nobody is buying.

Wow! A Cafepharma cop! Your mother must be proud. You are correct, however, I bailed from Linvatec a couple of years ago after more than a decade. However much you protest, people and doctors were confused by the ConMed name on the AAOS booth when ConMed decided to post their name instead of Linvatec and Hall Surgical (over the power products). I found that management really didn't have a realistic vision regarding where we needed new products, wanted to copy other companies products du jour, and engineering was continually devoting time to correcting problems from the most recent recall rather than working on imaginative new products
