joimax(R) Holds the First International TESSYS(R) User Meeting in Veenhuizen, The Netherlands, and Announces the Launch of Various New Products for Endoscopic Spinal Surgery

KARLSRUHE, Germany, May 14, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- On 14 and 15 May 2010 joimax(R) GmbH holds the first international user meeting of endoscopic spinal surgery in Veenhuizen/Niederlande. Besides the ten reference surgeons about 30 participants and customers from Germany, Europe, the United States and other countries are expected to join the meeting. The scientific program comprises a two-day conference which will be opened with a keynote lecture of Prof. Dr. Gerbrand J. Groen of the university of Utrecht. CEO and founder of the company Wolfgang Ries will give an outline of the product offensive in the coming months in the field of access systems, ablation and drilling systems and the latest joimax(R) HD technologies.

One of the highlights of this event will be the opening ceremony of Rugkliniek Iprenburg in Veenhuizen. The head of this private clinic Dr. Menno Iprenburg, a long-time member of the joimax(R) Faculty, having completed more than 900 TESSYS(R) surgeries, states: "It was the right decision to give up my position as chief surgeon in Assen and to risk once again total self-employment with the joimax(R) TESSYS(R) method," and, "this is also proven by the significantly increasing number of patients and the possibility of operating more indications with the joimax(R) endoscopic methods."
