HELP! stethscope diaphragm ripped

[khmerb0i]

Hello everyone. I am about to finish my classroom orientation and will start orienting on my floor next week. I have a littmann cardiology 2 SE 3M and the diaphragm was ripped off so i glued it back together to the black rim. the black ring is still able to swivel. Is there anyway that I can take it off and repair it with new diaphragm parts? Is it easy to do and where can I buy it at. I live in philadelphia. Please help i cannot afford to buy a new stethoscope.

Yes, it can be replaced. Either contact Littman via their website-they likely sell replacement diaphragms. Or try a (nursing) uniform shop-around here, I go to the Scrub Shop/Tafford store-they sell those parts. Or try a medical supply store-they often have stethescope replacement parts. Good luck!
