Robert M. Zimecki, CO, was taken from his family
and the field of O&P suddenly on October 20, 2007. Bob began
his orthotic career at the Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church,
Virginia. In 1987, he opened Northern Virginia Orthotics and
Prosthetics, which was acquired by Hanger Orthopedic Group, of
Bethesda, Maryland, in 2003. This quiet, talented orthotist and
family man was recovering from a back injury at his home in Palm
Coast, Florida, when he passed away. He took a special interest in
treating children and those with spinal disorders. With his warm
smile and talented hands, he found satisfaction in a career that
helped countless persons, making a huge difference in their
lives.
