Specialty scopes

Why we are called The Endoscope Specialists

We repair all types of small diameters such as 1.9 mm–3.0 mm scopes, reverse angle optics, scopes with magnetic adjustments, operating laparoscopes and nephroscopes.

These instruments are where most repair vendors stop. The optics are too small, the tolerances too tight, and the assembly too unforgiving for a general bench. Because we run our own optical lab, refiber lab, laser cutter and two laser welding stations in-house, we can take on work that gets quoted as "unrepairable — replace" elsewhere.

If you have a scope sitting in a drawer because someone told you it could not be fixed, send it to us for an evaluation. There is no cost to find out.
