BEHIND THE NAME

Jean-Andre Venel

Known as the father of orthopaedics, Jean-Andre Venel was responsible for many diverse musculoskeletal treatments and inventions.

Born on May 28, 1740, Venel is famously known for building the first orthopaedic institute of its kind in the world, in Orbe, Switzerland, in 1780.

RESEARCH.
INNOVATION.
RESULTS.

Jean-Andre Venel was a voracious learner. He was passionate about advancement, progress, and results.

Before there were “outcome studies,” Venel researched, investigated, and experimented. He casted patients upon arrival at the institute and casted them upon departure. And unlike his peers, he measured his results. The knowledge he gained led him to his next study again and again.

At Venel, we find alignment with Jean-Andre Venel. With our specialization in orthopaedics, strategic commitment to research, continual development of platforms, and adamant focus on results, we proudly honor Jean-Andre Venel in our focus, in our research, in our actions, and in our name.
