Zimmer in Kansas City


It is sad but it’s the reality working in this area. Biomet has always been the stronger organization in this part of the country and now we’re being led by an inferior leadership team that reminds us daily that the divide is real. The Zimmer guys are just box openers out of this office.
 
Name 1 Zimmer rep in this area that could move business if they left??? Not 1 here. Every one of them is just a box opener. The Biomet guys have the relationships that move business!!
 
She just hired a rep in Western Kansas that was recently fired from his last rep gig for literally scrubbing into a case and touching the patient without consent. Compliance will be knocking on her door soon! This place is a nightmare.
 
I know that we have fired reps for just operating the Hana table and jeopardizing patient care…WTF? She’s a joke and legal needs to look at this.
Every rep I know including myself that does anterior hips operates the Hana table…. At least a dozen from last training I was at confirmed they do as well, and I was trained by a Zimmer employee how to do it also. Can I sue Z for putting me in this position? Lol. Nah, my surgeon trusts me, that’s why I do it, and that’s why the business will go with me if Z fires me for making sure cases went good. Legal can crawl back into the hole the come from, nobody cares and the threats don’t matter to us.
 
Operating a Hana table is definitely different than scrubbing into a surgery. That’s a line that is probably illegal. The rep in western Kansas should never be allowed in again. Was a background check done?
