Heller after 16 years of leadership. Maxine Hochhauser will join the rehab and health

I’m optimistic about transitioning HealthPRO Heritage’s CEO role to Maxine,” remarked Mr.
Heller.

in the therapy space,” stated Naishadh Lalwani, Partner at Wellspring Capital Management,

phase of growth. We are fortunate to have a new leader with such an impressive track record
in health care services.”
Ms. Hochhauser began her extensive and impressive career as a Physical Therapist. Most

reputation as a top-of-market provider,” states Ms. Hochhauser. “We will build on our success
by remaining dedicated to our 14,000 front-line professionals, 900,000 patients and 100,000
kiddos we have the privilege to serve each year.”
