Ben completed a BHSc in Physiotherapy from Auckland University of Technology, after which he played professional rugby for many years in Europe. While there, Ben completed a PGDip in sports medicine from Otago University.

A brief stint practising as a physiotherapist preceded entry to the orthopaedic industry, where he immediately loved the challenge, transformative aspects, and  contribution in an industry he is passionate about.

Having an entrepreneurial spirit, Ben then set up ORB Medical which continues to develop the relationship between industry, suppliers, hospitals and doctors – all with the final well-being and successful outcome of the patient at the heart of the business.

He is very proud of and grateful for the ORB team

Outside of work, Ben loves to spend time with his family, wife Clara, and their 5 beautiful daughters.

Sarah completed her double degree in Commerce and Physical Education at Otago University.

She has worked in the NZ health and fitness industry, and finance in the UK, before returning to NZ and discovering the medical industry. Sarah has enjoyed working in many areas within this industry including: management, coaching, sales, and marketing for over 15 years. She is stimulated by the fact ORB Medical can source cutting edge technology and devices from anywhere in the world, bring them to the NZ orthopaedic industry and ultimately benefit the NZ public.

Lily completed her bachelor of nursing at Massey University Wellington. She worked at Starship Hospital in the operating rooms for four years, in the spine and orthopaedic team.

After completing her nursing training, Kath worked at Middlemore Hospital gaining theatre experience in multiple areas before embarking on overseas travel.

After several years in the UK, and indulging her passion of travel, she returned home once again to Middlemore, specialising in both elective and acute orthopeadics.  After ten years at Middlemore, Kath moved to the private setting of MercyAscot Hospital, to become an orthopeadic charge nurse.  

Twenty years later, having had two children and continuing to work part time, Kath finally moved out of the hospital setting and took up a position with Orb Medical as a clinical specialist.

Tegan completed her Bachelor of Nursing degree in Northland and worked and lived throughout New Zealand before settling in Auckland specialising in surgical orthopaedics. 

She is passionate about joint replacement surgery and innovative new technologies that make recovery times for patients quicker and easier.

She enjoys travelling for work in Northland with smaller hospitals and where her family still all live. Auckland living has allowed Tegan the flexibility and challenge that was missing in her nursing career and working alongside the experienced and enthusiastic ORB Medical team members has been invaluable to her learning in her clinical support role.
