Profiles: Meet your colleagues
Rich Rosenberg, CPO, owner,
R.J. Rosenberg Orthopedic Lab, Cincinnati, Ohio
Question: What attracted you to O&P as a career? A:
After I graduated from a Chicago high school in 1966, I really didn't have any direction as to what I wanted to do. I looked into Northwestern University's O&P program and decided to do it.
Q: If you could change one thing about O&P, what would it be? A:
Insurance companies! If you weren't in the field before managed care arrived, you have nothing to compare with how things were before.
Q: What is your favorite Olympic sport? A:
Down-hill skiing-the slaloms.
Q.: What do you like to do best when you are not working? A:
Amateur sports car road racing. I race with a Porsche-sponsored organization, so there are all Porsches on the track. It's great fun!
Q. What attracted you to sports car racing? A:
I've always liked sports cars. One of the guys I went to Northwestern with, Bill Schumann, a CPO, said, "Let's go racing after we get out of school." He, I, and another guy who went to Northwestern, Bill Neumann, CPO, bought a race car and went racing around Chicago.
Q: What's your favorite web site? A.
I usually go first to the rennlist [
www.rennlist.org
] site, which is about Porsches.
Note:
The O&P EDGE will be calling persons involved in O&P and rehab at random for Profile interviews. Who's next? It could be you!
