    "100% Satisfaction" Surgeon feedback

    The Galaxy retractor range is very popular with surgeons, and in a study on almost 4000 patients in 12 NHS Trusts, 100% of surgeons who tried were happy with Galaxy.

    In the initial launch in 2018, 98% of surgeons who tried Galaxy wanted to switch straight away from their previous retractor.

    “While it is very similar in shape to the retractor I used previously, the Galaxy II® is easier to use, with cam locks rather than a screw mechanism to secure it, allowing single-handed operation.”

    Straightforward switchover

    “Making the decision to switch to the Galaxy II® was quite straightforward, and we now use it routinely. As a physician and surgeon that frequently operates solo, it has clearly become my assistant. It is easier to use than other products I’ve tried, aesthetically pleasing and priced competitively – so it also makes my surgical centre happy!  All-round, it’s a win-win situation.”

    For example, instead of ordering a box of 10 retractor frames PLUS a box of 50 hooks, you can instead order a kit with the frame and hooks prepacked together in the same sterile pouch.

    Galaxy Surgical Retractor kit: Square frame, light clip, catheter clip and 8 Blunt low profile 12mm hooks in a prepacked sterile kit. Order code JUNE3001B12

    To simplify ordering we have prepacked the most common order codes in sterile kits, ready for use. The prepacked kits save cost AND space, and simplify the ordering process by replacing several order codes with just one.

    Galaxy Surgical Retractor kit: Snowman frame, light clip, catheter clip and 8 Sharp low profile 5mm hooks in a prepacked sterile kit. Order code JUNE3000s5

    Yet another benefit of our prepacked kits: less waste and packaging. Instead of nurses spending time unpacking single packed hooks one by one, the hooks in our kits come in the same pouch, saving time and packaging, and helping reduce waste.
