Midwest Bio-service Company

Duane Ring started our business in 1974. Working as a professor of Microbiology and Botany during the fall and spring he would travel around Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas during the summers doing microscope sales, service, used microscopes for sale, accessories and repairs.

In 1986 we moved our main office from Kansas to Oklahoma and that is when Duane’s son Paul at the age of 16 started helping him in the summers while Duane retired from teaching to work the “Microscope Business” full time. Duane worked as Owner/Operator/Technician until the mid 2000’s at which time he retired to the office and Paul took over many of his duties. At the age of 87 Duane is talking about retiring completely (we’ll see).

As of today, our main office is in Tulsa, OK  with two technicians covering Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri and Kansas and we have a field technician  who resides in Denton to cover our North, East, and West Texas accounts. We are authorized service providers and online store for Olympus, Nikon, Labomed, Accu-Scope, Unitron, Swift Optical, and National Optical. We provide service on all makes and models past and present. We have technicians that are factory trained with a combined experience of over 45 years in the field.
