From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Athletico Physical Therapy is an Oak Brook, Illinois-based chain offering orthopedic rehabilitation originally founded in 1991 by physical therapist Mark Kaufman.[1] The company started by providing rehabilitation services for student athletes at Francis W. Parker High School[2] and Lions Rugby in Chicago.[1] The company currently has over 500 locations in 12 states and more than 5,000 employees.[3] Athletico is majority owned by BDT Capital Partners of Chicago.[2][4]

In June 2019 Athletico Physical Therapy named former Fresenius Medical Care executive Ron Rodgers as the new CEO, while founder Mark Kaufman remained on as executive chairman.[5][6]

In October 2019 Khymberly Booth was named as the organization's chief human resource officer.[7] In early 2020 Ben Jacobs was named as the organization's chief development officer.[8]
