Gary Strpko

Hello, I'm Gary and I joined Block Imaging in 2014. My goal is to ensure that every C-arm that passes through Block’s refurbishment program is functional to its original manufacturer’s performance standards and ready to serve patients from the day it arrives at its new home. I like the fact that I can use both my mind and my hands in my work, and it’s very rewarding to know that when I fix up a system it will be put to good use. The fact that C-arms have both mechanical and electrical systems to work on is the best of both worlds! The more challenging the system is to fix, the better I like it. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my wife, kids, and poker.
