Philadelphia-based Rothman Orthopaedic Institute is scaling up in Florida this year, with plans to recruit more physicians and add offices, according to the Orlando Business Journal.
The orthopedic group partnered with Altamonte Springs, Fla.-based AdventHealth to expand into Central Florida and spent the last year growing the number of physicians in the region and establishing offices. Rothman is leasing a space in AdventHealth's $100 million, 12-story Innovation Tower, which is expected to open later this year.
The practice aims to have eight offices in Florida by the end of 2022, with additional locations set for 2023, Daryl Osbahr, MD, chief of orthopedic surgery at Rothman Orthopaedics Florida and executive medical director of AdventHealth Orthopedic Institute, told the Journal.
The group currently has five offices in Florida and offers surgery at six AdventHealth hospitals or surgical pavilions.
Rothman also plans to bring on 30-35 physicians by the end of 2022 and 50 physicians in five years and estimates it will see about 40,000 patients in Florida this year, according to the report.
