While it's easy to get wrapped up in other healthcare areas that seem more exciting, such as biotech or pharmaceuticals, there are a number of other companies in quieter sectors that are worth a mention. In particular, there are a number of medical device manufacturers that investors should check out.

Both Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) and Medtronic (NYSE: MDT) are companies that have a lot going for them. While the two businesses once had little overlap with each other, they are now on track to become direct competitors in the area of surgical robotics. Taking this into consideration, if you had to pick between the two, which one is the better buy?
