Computer navigation, minimally invasive surgical techniques, and more sophisticated instruments offer significant improvement in patient care.

About Us



Operativ (formerly titled Evergreen Orthopedic Reserach Lab) was founded in 2006 through the collaboration of many designing orthopedic surgeons. Operativ strives to educate orthopedic surgeons in order to improve surgical techniques and patient outcomes by developing orthopedic instruments that allow the utilization of advanced techniques. In the last decade we have witnessed great advances in minimally invasive surgical hip and knee replacement techniques.


Operativ was created in part to help answer the need for instruments specifically designed for MIS and navigation techniques. Achieving this brings about the necessity of employing a full team of design specialists including surgeon designers, CAD artists, tissue specialists, and ISO-9000 certified manufacturers. We offer high quality German Stainless Steel surgical instruments at an affordable price with on-site customer service.


Because Operativ enlists the expertise of our design surgeons, uses high-grade German Quality stainless steel and holds our products to strict standards, our customers receive superior surgical instruments that will last for a lifetime and significantly improve surgical technique and patient outcomes.


Navigation Lab

At Operativ we realize that rapidly evolving MIS techniques represent a significant departure from traditional joint replacement and involve a significant learning curve. We are here to provide a means for surgeons overcome that curve. We host cadaver labs in which surgeons can learn in a risk free environment.
