Our Values
United Orthopedic Corporation works with surgeons and their patients, and we always keep the following values in mind :
innovation, accessibility, integrity, responsibility, high quality, training, availability.
The History of United Orthopedic
United Orthopedic was founded by Jason Lin who, after years of serving orthopedic surgeons as a distributor, cared deeply about providing surgeons with greater access to high quality orthopedic solutions. In 1993, Lin brought together surgeon thought leaders, engineers, and manufacturing professionals to explore innovative, cost-effective ways to create improved and advanced orthopedic surgical solutions.
By listening to what surgeons were asking for, and by integrating the design and production processes, United Orthopedic was able to create high quality, versatile products and provide greater responsiveness to surgeons’ needs and, in turn, improving the clinical outcomes for their patients.
In-house turnkey production is the key to UOC’s success.

- Significant cost savings – proven and reproducible production processes, developed through decades of continuous improvement and ongoing technological investment, allow UOC to design and manufacture reliable and high-value solutions at very competitive prices.
- Product customisation – a key advantage of UOC‘s unique in-house design and production capabilities is the ability to quickly respond to requests for complex or extremely customised surgical tools and instruments.
- Unparalleled reactivity – in-house manufacturing allows UOC to respond quickly to market demands, accelerating modifications and helping us meet a wider range of clinical needs.
- Reliable deliveries – because we have direct control over the production process, UOC stocks remain stable, predictable, and reliable throughout the year, meaning orders are processed and delivered in the fastest and most efficient way possible.
