GERATI STORY
Our parent company, Professional Hospital Furnishers has been manufacturing surgical instruments since last 45 years. The idea to enter into more specialized and advanced surgery instruments had been brewing up but it was not until 2007 that this idea would fully materialize.
One of our directors, Mr Aqeel Abbas was part of an industrial study trip that traveled to Sweden and Germany and visited world’s best medical device research and development centers. This trip provided enough motivation for him to go after the company’s dreams for high-tech medical instrumentation. GERATI Healthcare was founded in 2007 and started its journey. It had been a non stop quest for perfection and we are happy that in many ways, our products had been instrumental in saving millions of lives all around the globe
