Service & Support
Safety, Reliability & Affordability
Our customers experience the best service support in the industry. Our focus is on safety, reliability and affordability – from purchase to equipment end of life. Canon Medical has an enviable reputation for customer support services across Australia and New Zealand. We strive to be the leaders in customer satisfaction by listening to our customers, setting realistic expectations and delivering on our promises.
Our practice has had a long-standing relationship with Canon. High quality imaging on our ultrasound units is complimented by amazing technical support.
Canon provide us with exceptional service and application support. This ensures that we provide our patients with high end imaging for all our ultrasound examination needs.
The entire team at Canon were excellent to work with during the design, development and opening of our new ClinRad Kenmore clinic. The delivery and installation of the Aplio a550 Ultrasounds and Lightning 160 CT Scanner went perfectly. Applications training and support provided was of a very high standard and targeted to our clinical requirements. Could not be happier with the service and support received from Canon!
From the team on the ground to the upper levels of management it is obvious that Canon Medical’s focus is on service, with great importance placed on relationships. The team are engaged, proactive and always willing to do what’s best to do for us and our patients, a constant that we know can always be relied upon. Over years of working closely with Canon Medical we agree that they are Made for Partnerships.
On behalf of Prince of Wales Hospital, I would like to thank Canon Medical for the successful department upgrade and installation of our two new CT scanners, and highly recommend Canon Medical to supply and manage any future medical imaging projects.
Since introduction of this new service and easier access to this screening tool in the public sector and acute care within Bundaberg and the wider community, we have seen a steady increase in referrals. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Canon Medical for their ongoing support and partnership in provision of this great service locally to the Bundaberg Community.
Safety
Canon Medical has a consistent focus of safety for patients, customers, operators and our engineers. This is achieved through licensing to meet regulatory requirements, training and specific model competency endorsement.
- Engineers licensed to meet local regulatory requirements: WH&S, electrical and radiation
- Engineer competency endorsed on each model
- Manufacturer trained engineers
- Local and international training courses
- Site Risk Assessment reviewed annually
- SWMS reviewed at each install and annually for maintenance
- Canon engineers plan, install and service your equipment: No third party installers
The entire process has been great, the team at Canon(engineers) managed to get the install to happen over a very challenging time with the looming Adelaide lockdown.
I enjoy a very good working relationship with Matthew (Service) and Michelle (Applications). Matt never fails to impress me with his encyclopaedic knowledge of the ultrasound platform and his diligence in following up any situation I might have, at times solving the problem over the phone. I am amazed at his availability to organise someone to attend on site in a very timely manner.
If the scale went higher than ten, I would have appreciated that! This has been the best install of any piece of equipment I have experienced in 30 years. The machine constantly exceeds our expectations, and our radiologists and referrers are well aware of an obvious improvement in our imaging. I cannot offer any suggestions for improvements to the installation or commissioning process. Canon Medical has handled all aspects of this at a standard that should be envied by all other vendors.
I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank the Canon Medical team for the successful completion of the Westmead Aquilion Prime installation. Regular communication during the planning phase, coupled with dedication from the skilled engineers ensured that project milestones were achieved with minimal disruption to the Medical Imaging Department.

In response to the statement “I would recommend Canon Service to my colleagues”Through effective pre-planning and project management, the Canon team made the installation and commissioning of the new Prime CT scanner seamless, delivering the project ahead of schedule.
Canon’s service has always been exceptional. The process of installation, apps support and after purchase care has been seamless and enabled our team to hit the ground running on our new Aquilion Lightning.
Our Aquilion Prime scanner failed at 12:30 pm on the Thursday before Easter and Canon worked with us to get staff on site by late afternoon, with approvals for repairs occurring by 10:30 pm on Thursday and the scanner back up and operational by 1 pm Easter Friday. Thanks to the team for the hard work and efficient seamless processes. It made a difference to the Eurobodalla Community and saved multiple transfers to the ACT over a busy holiday weekend.
We reported a tube fault at 8am. The new tube was delivered to site, installed and calibrated with the system ready to use later that day. This was another demonstration of the fantastic support provided by the Canon Medical team. It was particularly appreciated at this time when the hospital needs to maintain system availability for COVID-19 related work.
Today, the response to a problem I had of my machine was amazing…..I know it is probably pot luck that our dedicated engineer was in the area however it has occurred on two other occasions as well. Problem fixed within 90 mins of my first contact. Great service from Canon Medical.
Many thanks to Canon Medical for the outstanding turn-around-time for the Manly CT Tube replacement today. I have never in my career witnessed a same-day new CT tube installation. A big thank you to the whole Canon Medical team and all the Manly-MV staff in the delivery of the contingency plan.
We installed our first Canon Medical lab in 1987. We currently operate three labs, all with DirectConnect. DirectConnect enables our staff to contact our designated Service Engineer directly by mobile phone. We talk to the engineers who know our equipment and people – first time, without delay and without the need to go through Call Centres. This ensures that we are able to maximise uptime and provide excellent care for our patients.
Canon Medical has proven to be the leader in WA for service, with excellent response times and a willingness to go above and beyond to meet our service needs.
We, here at North Shore have had a very long and happy relationship with Canon Medical... If spare parts are needed they are couriered to Sydney post-haste and we are back up and running in no time.
