Sir, please consider all the good rules of a logotype, we worked a lot considering them, for instance, try to print in black and white the logo you likes (e.g.is it recognizable you have to fax it or to print in monochrome or grayscale)

Some helpful rules:

  i like it a lot! something fresh! but i don't think management will sadly, it looks like a logo for a toy company. if you can rework it that would be appreciated. maybe have the 'spine' underneath the NSW on the right hand side and rework the design? thanks!

  HI the logo posted is strong and straight to the point. I can provide a blue version of it. This is surely not a toy company logo. I'd appreciate if you could visualise the logo on promotions and posters etc., It'd be surely a stand out fresh bold and unique one. Thanks.

Fortune 500 companies like to keep it simple, hardly any of them have people in the logos. Smith and Nephew does not. Many chiropractors have these exact same people and figures in their logos, the brand might be lost on the populations collective consciousness.

Just a thought, if you provide a world class product... have a solid sales network, a simple logo will do the world of good. You are not a graphics company, you sell high end biologics, which help people.

For some people, the ability to stand up or walk a few meters is a miracle in itself.

  Fortune 500 companies born before the web2.0 era.
  
  Anyway what a professional suggestion! Do you read the brief? He is a reseller. An Agent! No need to "collective consciousness" their clients are medic and nursery chiefs not the patient mass!
  
  Medtronic and big company that produces have to like at the patient mass. An agent had to look affidable, clean, and modern (high tech) to the medical stuff (head physicians, etc etc).
  
  Have you ever been at a surgical congress? They loves modern graphics and 3d animations in the presentations to explain complex new techniques.
  
  Last but not least, athletic images like discus trhowers are historically been associated to health and medicine in many logos and campagin (a little bit of optimism my firend!)

  "Draw reference from other big medical companies such as DePuy, Stryker, Smith & Nephew, Synthes etc. These can be googled easily. "
  
  They obviously want to go places.
  
  They at least have vision.
  
  You got a nice design there man, but these people who buy the products are not super heros. They get a product which has a logo of super-man or a man in agony...
  
  We are not bashing anyone, trying to walk in others shoes... how would you view some of these logos... would you not do research on a product before you put it inside of you!
  
  We mean no malice, just our view point.
  
  Keep on with the creative flow.

Thank you everyone for ideas so far. Please be creative and think outside the box.
We only have two days left of competition and want to receive the best logo for our company.
Play around with word placement, maybe NSW on top, and spine on bottom?
Also abstract spines, modern crisp simple wording etc encouraged!
Be different, but professional. I've attached some ideas i came across. thanks!

  Then why the over used figures! You supply to people who know about the products. Its a hard sell we know. But how many companies use the same figures over and over again.
  
  We took the S from "S" and made it into the spinal cord, with key points. Are people wanting to remember a human figure with a spinal cord... that is a hard pill to swallow.
  
  Your company supplies products which helps humanity. The majority of people will never live a normal life, many people after having back-operations have years of rehabilitation. A logo which shows agony or the ability to be a super hero does not fit well in our opinion.
  
  Thanks for the direction, helps greatly. Will be submitting more original designs for the company.

  i like the idea of the dots for the spine, but the figure is not quite what we're after.
