QuickMedical Announces Successful Sales and Marketing Results for 2012

Thursday, December 13th, 2012


Issaquah, WA (PRWEB) December 11, 2012

QuickMedical continues to surpass sales goals by incorporating fundamental marketing and sales strategies. The basic sales and marketing activities that helped to grow the company in the past, continues to help the company grow sales and market share in 2012.

“One of the fundamental reasons why we have continued to grow at 25% per year over the last 10 years is because we control our growth,” said Loren Timmons, Marketing Director at QuickMedical. “We measure much of our performance by asking our customers how we’re doing. Growing too fast or in the wrong direction will increase customer complaints, reduce sales, and in the long-term hurt the company’s reputation; out of control growth is a cancer.”

QuickMedical has taken steps to add new technology software that increases security for their on-line order processing service. They have added a paperless accounting system to help reduce cost and continue to hire more sales and customer service personnel.

Mr. Timmons concluded, “QuickMedical made the decision a number of years ago that they would aggressively pursue new business opportunities, private labeling (QM-Elite) and build a satisfied, but more importantly, loyal customer following. I believe that through our past hard work, an aggressive internet and print marketing campaign, and by adhering to fundamental sales and marketing concepts, QuickMedical will continue to grow and be profitable for years to come.

Presently QuickMedical is in the process of adding more facilities to handle the additional space needed to accommodate the nearly 40,000 products available through their website. In 2012 alone, QuickMedical added another 10,000 SKU’s to both their Government Sales and Commercial Sales product offerings.

“In good or bad economic times, our focus at QuickMedical has been to expand our product lines, increase our marketing and co-marketing effort, build long-term customer relationships, and sell outside of our comfort zone” said Scott Hanna, CEO at QuickMedical. “We provide added value to our existing services while meeting ongoing customer requests for new products that increase distribution channels and reduce cost.”

Treating Foraminal Stenosis Today: Surgery Gives Better Results; Top Surgeon Dr. Kaixuan Liu Explains Benefits of Today?s Techniques on Foraminal Narrowing

Monday, September 3rd, 2012


Edison, NJ (PRWEB) August 31, 2012

As America?s Baby Boomers continue to age, so does the rate of spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spaces in the spine (particularly the openings, called foramen, that surround the nerve roots). Foraminal stenosis typically occurs in the lumbar region (the lower back), although it also strikes in the cervical spine (the neck). Between 250,000 and 500,000 Americans have symptoms, and some medical leaders expect that number to top 2 million by 2021. Lumbar foraminal narrowing is already the most common cause for back surgery in older adults, and the rates of stenosis surgery are expected to double in the coming years.

As we age, our spines typically undergo a few changes that can spell trouble, says Kaixuan Liu MD, PhD, chief surgeon at Atlantic Spinal Care in Edison, N.J. ?The spinal discs gradually lose flexibility and can herniate, or bulge,? he explains. Other age-related problems, such as bone spurs, arthritis, and thickened ligaments, also can cause foraminal narrowing. Symptoms are tied to the location of the stenosis: If a cervical foramen is affected, you?ll feel pain, tingling, or other symptoms in your shoulders, arms, and hands. If a lumbar foramen is affected, you?ll have symptoms in your buttocks, legs, and feet. ?Impinged nerves also can cause loss of sensory or motor function,? Dr. Liu explains. And if the impingement persists ? and muscles are deprived of nutrients for an extended period of time ? the nerves can die.

Therefore, it?s important to identify and treat foraminal stenosis early. And if conservative treatments ? non-steroidal drugs, exercises, and injections ? don?t help, surgery can. ?Foraminal stenosis surgery is generally reserved for patients whose pain and weakness have significantly impacted their quality of life,? Dr. Liu says. ?If you find your activities are significantly limited, you should consider it.?

Newer (and better) options

Today?s surgical procedures can fix a case of foraminal stenosis like never before. In fact, there are several studies, including the new SPORT, or ?Spine Patient Outcomes Research Trial,? which have shown that surgical intervention has a higher success rate than nonsurgical modalities.

While foraminal stenosis surgery has traditionally been performed as an ?open surgery,? with general anesthesia, big incisions, and a lengthy recovery, today?s surgeons use a considerably less invasive technique that allows the patient to go home immediately (and, in most cases, resume normal activities within a few weeks).

In an endoscopic foraminotomy, the surgeon makes a very small incision and gently inserts a small metal tube, about the size of a pencil, into the affected foramen. Through this tube, he inserts a small camera and uses it to guide him as he removes the tissue that?s causing the stenosis. Afterwards, the tube is removed and the incision is closed with only one or two stitches. ?This procedure allows us to relieve the pain and other symptoms of foraminal narrowing without major surgery,? Dr. Liu explains. ?It delivers big benefits without the big operation.?
