New Owners Of Medchair Burnaby Stress Importance Of Customer Service

BURNABY, BC (Monday, December 04, 2006) - "In the home medical equipment business, customer service is king,"

says Mike Smith, General Manager of MEDIchair Burnaby. "The new owners of

MEDIchair Burnaby, the Mahedi Hirji family, are long-time successful Vancouver

business people. They have committed to a strategy of enhancing customer

service and assisting customers to achieve their full potential by providing

the right home medical equipment solution. This is a very people oriented

business that requires highly trained and knowledgeable staff that are

passionate about the service they provide to each customer."



Smith adds: "Burnaby is the third most populated urban centre in British Columbia

with an estimated population of nearly 200,000. We believe that the future growth

of MEDIchair Burnaby is promising due to three key factors. One, people are

living longer and staying in their homes longer than ever before. Two, the number

of people who are recuperating at home from sports injuries, surgeries and

accidents seems to be steadily increasing. Three, baby boomers are reaching

the age when they require home medical equipment to enhance their quality of life."



"Our customers have told us that they want to see and trial products before they

purchase them. That's why our retail space demonstrates the latest home

medical equipment in a variety of settings. We also provide ample space for

people to properly evaluate mobility products such as walkers, wheel chairs

and electric scooters."



Smith explained that there have been numerous recent advances in technology

in the Home Medical Equipment field that people with elderly parents, caregivers,

seniors, the physically challenged, and those with medical issues should be aware of.



"At MEDIchair Burnaby we want consumers to learn first hand about these

new products that help people deal with independent living and quality of

life issues as well as access, mobility, and daily living challenges. As an

example, many people are not aware that our technical service team

makes house calls including the pickup and delivery of Home Medical

Equipment products. For those that have difficulty getting out of their

homes in Burnaby, this is a tremendous service."
