DRE has been professionally refurbishing operating room equipment for 30 years. In a time where health spending is stagnating, medical practitioners and health care professionals are still expected to maintain business as usual. This demand for the same degree of service, despite tightening purse strings, makes the case for the continuing growth of the refurbished medical equipment market.

Lauren Trotter, a DRE Medical equipment specialist, will be showcasing the DRE Echo CO2 Capnograph Monitor, the DRE VSO2 Anesthesia Machine and the DRE Waveline EZ Portable Patient Monitor at ADSA Feb. 14-15.

Big things are happening at DRE! We’re celebrating our 30th anniversary as a company this year, and we want to include you in the festivities.

DRE’s International medical equipment consultants Amanda Cannady and Kary VanArsdale will once again be among the thousands of people who travel to Dubai for this year’s Arab Health Expo — the largest medical exhibition and trade show in the Middle East.

At DRE, we’re committed to helping your practice find the highest quality medical equipment at the best price — and that includes rolling out some special, end-of-the-year discounts. But act fast, because these great savings won’t last long!

Anesthesia machines play a vital role in medical practices, so deciding which is right for your needs makes an impact. DRE sales people are trained to help answer questions about the roles you need an anesthesia machine to play in your facility. The first factor to take into consideration is determining the role a new anesthesia machine will play in your practice. This will make it easier to make important decisions about the size, portability and anesthesia agent needed for use. Once you’ve defined these parameters, you can begin narrowing your search to the machines your facility could implement. DRE offers price points for both new and refurbished, portable and wall-mounted units from all major name brands and DRE.
