“Upgrading to the 3.5x magnification with an integrated headlight has been life-changing.”

Dr. Betsy Grunch, MD, FAANS, FACS, FCNS

As a neurosurgeon with over 12 years of hands-on experience using SurgiTel loupes, I can say without hesitation that they have become an indispensable part of my daily practice. SurgiTel’s commitment to ergonomic excellence and optical precision has consistently supported my ability to work with clarity, comfort, and confidence in the OR.

Recently, I upgraded to the 3.5x magnification with an integrated headlight, and I can only describe the experience as life-changing. The enhanced magnification offers a perfect balance between field of view and detail—ideal for the precision neurosurgery demands. The built-in headlight delivers bright, shadow-free illumination exactly where I need it, reducing visual fatigue and helping me stay focused during long, high-stakes procedures.

What truly sets SurgiTel apart, however, is their ergonomic design. Over the years, these loupes have played a major role in preserving my neck and back health. They encourage a neutral head position, and as a result, I’ve been able to avoid the common musculoskeletal issues that so many surgeons face over time.

Whether you’re just beginning your surgical journey or you’re a seasoned professional, investing in high-quality, ergonomic visualization tools is not a luxury—it’s essential. SurgiTel continues to raise the bar, and I’m proud to endorse their products as both a surgeon and an advocate for surgeon wellness.
