Stryker’s history is rooted in innovation. 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 in 1941 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.(2) Even today, Stryker is dedicated to introducing new materials that are designed to make hip replacement and knee replacement joints feel and act more like the natural joint.
