Apollo Surgical Industries, Inc. (ASI) was founded in 1997 by Dr. George C. Christoudias to develop minimally invasive surgical instruments in a still-emerging laparoscopic field. Dr. Christoudias has performed over 15,000 operations in his 33 years of surgical experience as a general surgeon and oncologist, and in 1990, he became one of the first surgeons to embrace and perform minimally invasive procedures on a regular basis.
With his position on the forefront of laparoscopy in the early 1990s, Dr. Christoudias recognized that this cutting-edge form of surgery deserved an equally advanced technology. Since then, he has patented over 16 laparoscopic instruments, all of which sprouted from his own frustrations and needs in the operating room. After nearly 15 years of developing and refining each design using feedback from other surgeons and engineering teams, ASI is finally ready to introduce them to the rest of the surgical community.
Based out of Teaneck, New Jersey, ASI has grown into a company that designs, develops, and distributes an exclusively patented line of products that are conceived in a surgeons' mind, and designed for a surgeons' hand.
