I have had the pleasure and the unique opportunity to work with Hood Laboratories for the past 12 years as someone who benefits from their product line, as a co-inventor, and consultant as well. The Hood Laboratories team, with Dennis, Lewis, and Rebecca are truly committed to their mission of improving patient lives. They have done this consistently by developing innovative solutions to surgical problems. Their product line is unique and niche. The Hood Laboratories team invests time, energy and finances to maintain the highest level of quality control for all Hood products. They are constantly working with and listening to the problems surgeons face to identify new opportunities for medical device development and also to learn how to constantly improve on their current product line to meet patient and surgeon needs. As an inventor, I have had the opportunity to work with Hood Laboratories on our collaborative product line, “The Walvekar Salivary Stents”. I found the team to always be responsive to my ideas and the multiple versions of the stent are a testament to their commitment to excellence and improvement. I am thrilled and honored to provide this testimonial for a team that I am not only proud to work with but also respect tremendously.Rohan R. Walvekar MDVice-Chair, Head and Neck Division & Mervin L.
