Synergy Spine Solutions is pleased to announce we have partnered with Creatori Health to distribute the Synergy Disc in South Africa.
Headquartered in Cape Town and with representation across South Africa and Namibia, Creatori Health is the first distributor to represent the Synergy Disc in Africa.
Led by Managing Director Jaco van der Walt, Creatori Health has been a distributor of specialised spinal implantable devices for more than 15 years with a focus on providing leading-edge technology that solve unmet clinical and patient needs.
Synergy Spine Solutions’ marquis technology, the Synergy Disc®, is the only artificial cervical disc with a 6° lordotic core that combines cervical alignment and balance with natural motion for patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) causing radiculopathy and/or myelopathy.
It not only provides a superior alternative to other artificial cervical discs on the market today, but also offers a viable and preferred alternative to many patients whose only current option is fusion surgery.
The Synergy Disc is currently commercially available in Europe, Asia, Australia, The Bahamas, Canada (SAP) and New Zealand. In the United States, Synergy Spine Solutions Inc. is currently enrolling patients in its 1-level IDE study, with 2-level to follow.
The exclusive agreement builds on both companies’ shared values, providing customers in South Africa with focused support, helping surgeons improve their patients’ quality of life and advance the standard of care.
Synergy Spine Solutions Vice-President (Sales & Marketing) Tim Hein said: “We appreciate the opportunity to work with Creatori Health in South Africa. They have tremendous experience in the spine implant space, and we share common values and focus on providing products that allow surgeons to treat their patients for an improved quality of life.”
Creatori Health Managing Director Jaco van der Walt said: “For the last few years Creatori Health has been looking to add cervical disc technology to our product portfolio. It had to be an exceptional disc, back supported by an experienced and dedicated team.
“After years of searching, we are excited to join forces with Synergy Spine Solutions in Southern Africa, as the Synergy Disc is the only disc designed to restore nature disc height, alignment and function.”
