I am confident he will do an amazing job as President and continue

natural-bone healing process in patients,” said Shallenberger. “I
am honored to continue my career with the company in this new role
as we continue to innovate and bring new technologies to the
market.”
Shallenberger joined Orthofix in 2005 as a Territory Manager and
quickly moved into the role of District Sales Manager before being

led his team to 30 consecutive quarters of year-over-year growth,
outpacing annual market growth rates, and was given additional
responsibilities for medical education in 2023. Prior to joining
