Austin, TX (February 8, 2015) — Ottobock is pleased to announce the formation of a new US Orthotics Business Unit. Effective January 1, 2016, this new business unit will be supported by the North American Orthotics Sales Organization and will focus solely on orthotic product sales in O&P, including C-Brace, stance control, WalkOn, modular components, and the full line of Ottobock off-the-shelf bracing products.

Ottobock’s existing Activity and Sports Medicine (ASM) Representatives will be renamed Ottobock Orthotics Sales Representatives and will support the full line of Ottobock Orthotics products and services.

Also effective January 1, the current Technical Orthopedics Business Unit will be renamed the Ottobock Prosthetics Business Unit and will be supported by the North American Prosthetics Sales Organization.

Ottobock customers will now have one dedicated sales representative for orthotics and one dedicated sales representative for prosthetics.

“As we continue to expand an increasingly complex portfolio, our goal is to provide our customers with a higher level of professional sales expertise,” said Matt Swiggum, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Ottobock North America. “By providing one sales representative for orthotics and one sales representative for prosthetics, we will be better able to support our customers in optimizing patient outcomes.”
