Stryker promotes Kevin A. Lobo to president
by Brendon Nafziger, DOTmed News Associate Editor | October 02, 2012
Stryker Corp. said Monday that it promoted Kevin A. Lobo, the boss of the company's orthopedics division, to president and CEO of the whole business.
Lobo, 47, joined the medical device company in April last year, and most recently was president of Stryker Orthopaedics.
Before joining Stryker, Lobo held a number of executive positions in health care, consumer and industrial chemical industries. For instance, he was president of Ethicon Endo-Surgery Inc. in 2006, and of Johnson & Johnson's Canadian medical products division the year before that.
Lobo replaces Curt R. Hartman the chief financial officer and interim CEO since February when former head Stephen MacMillan resigned. Hartman, 48, has gone on to other opportunities, Stryker said, although he will stay on as an adviser as the company looks for a permanent CFO.
