“It's interesting to look back at how we originally characterized who Boston Scientific was, what we did, what was important. It hasn't changed a bit, that's because the values are timeless ones: people, passion, commitment, conviction, integrity and a focus on patients.”

“When we started out, the potential of less-invasive medicine to reduce risk, trauma, cost, time and aftercare was not obvious to many. But anytime someone challenges the established way of doing things, it's not welcomed right away. You have to be patient. We're still trying to convert marketplaces all over the world and in many different specialties. We're doing it with one goal in mind: providing benefits to doctors, to patients and, frankly, to society overall.”
