Flashback to circa 1952. The place is Guadalajara,
Mexico, known as the most Mexican of Mexican cities and a place
where authentic Mexican traditions can be experienced amidst its
many attractions. In this City of Roses, Señor Rodolfo Ortiz,
a prosthetist, and his wife, Señora Maria Elena Vazquez del
Mercado, established their own O&P practice. Working together,
they would build a business that would endure through their
lifetime and be passed on to their son, Rodolfo Marlo Ortiz Vazquez
del Mercado, CP(M) of Ortiz Internacional S.A. de C.V., Mexico.
Ortiz is one of six children who all eventually entered the field
of O&P. Little did that humble couple know how their choice to
begin working in O&P would change their family’s
future.
