Standard flat examination tables have a lot of practical uses, and they are definitely essential in most medical facilities and settings. However, if patient comfort or the ability to position the patient in the best possible examination or treatment stance are top priorities, power exam tables are a must. These tables, which provide a range of features and options, can turn a challenging procedure or exam into a very simple and time efficient event.


Power examination tables come in a variety of styles and designs. One of the most popular options include a power lift feature that allows the doctor or medical staff to alter the height of the table.

In addition, patients with injuries or difficulty moving into a traditional height table will have an easier time transfering onto power examination tables. Once the patient is on the table, a foot control can be used to smoothly and effortlessly raise the table to the correct position for the exam or procedure. This is perfect for OB/GYN, podiatry, and other types of examinations.
