As a global leader in medical technology, Medtronic is committed to reducing barriers to high-quality healthcare, expanding training of health professionals, and strengthening and giving back to the hundreds of global communities where we work, live, and make a difference. Together with our physician partners, Medtronic served more than 72 million patients in 2020 — improving the lives of more than two people every second.
