How to Choose the Right Medical Exam Table

The exam table anchors every room. Choosing well improves patient comfort, staff ergonomics, and throughput.

Power vs. manual

Power tables adjust height and positioning at the touch of a button — ideal for high volume, bariatric patients, and accessibility. Manual tables cost less and suit lower-volume or specialty rooms.

Weight capacity & stability

Check the rated capacity and choose a margin above your typical patient. A low, stable step height improves safe transfers.

Positioning & features

• Adjustable backrest and leg sections
• Stirrups or accessory sockets if needed
• Drawers and storage for supplies
• Outlet and pass-through for devices

Upholstery & cleanability

Seamless, fluid-resistant upholstery in a durable color sanitizes easily and lasts longer.
