"Franzel Orthopedic is an outstanding addition to our patient care facilities based in Dayton and the surrounding southwestern Ohio market," said OrPro President Michael Hamontree. "We look for a company with people that understand the need in today's healthcare market to marry the practice of O&P with the business of O&P. And we look for a company that can take advantage of our experience in the business of O&P to strengthen and grow their O&P practice. We believe that Franzel Orthopedic and its employees bring an excellent opportunity for our continued growth in the southwestern Ohio region."

Franzel Orthopedic was owned by Amy Yates, CPO, and Glenn Schober, CP. Yates, president of Franzel Orthopedic, said, "Running an O&P business has become such an overwhelming job, with the increasing complexities of regulatory and contracting issues. Glenn and I simply wanted the opportunity to spend more time doing what we enjoy and what we do best - practicing prosthetics and orthotics. And we feel that by joining with OrPro, we'll have the ability to put a great deal more focus on patient care and our practice."

OrPro, Inc. is based in Irvine, California, and has patient care facilities in Ohio, Indiana, Texas, Oklahoma, and Maryland.
