About Us

Van Sickle Surgical Instruments was launched in August of 1988. We are a Women-Owned Small Business specializing in hand-held surgical instruments for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Facial Plastic Surgery, Dermatologic and MOHS Surgery, ENT, and Dermatology.

Our two primary focuses have always been to provide superior surgical instruments and excellent customer service.

The quality of our instruments is second to none! They are made exclusively in Germany using German, surgical-grade stainless steel and forgings.

We are equally proud of the reputation we have earned in providing outstanding customer support. Our customers frequently tell us that of all the companies they deal with, ours is the best!

Expert instrument repair is a service we offer exclusively to our instrument customers.  We know that keeping instruments in proper working order not only extends the life of instruments, it is essential for maintaining effective functionality.  The best surgical training, skills, and experience demand the best surgical instruments in the best working order.

Mark Van Sickle has over thirty-five years of experience in this field. His vast knowledge of hand-held surgical instruments, in a variety of specialties, has placed him in demand for consultations. He is able to identify instruments, evaluate them for need of repair or replacement, and recommend instruments for start-up practices, as well as expansions. Mark routinely assists doctors in selecting instruments and creating sets for their specific needs and procedures. Please visit our Consulting page or contact us for more information.
