Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center

What Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center does

Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Center (OFAC) is a private, multi-location orthopedic medical practice founded in 1998 and headquartered in Worthington, Ohio. The practice specializes in the diagnosis, surgical treatment, and non-surgical management of foot and ankle conditions, serving individual patients across Central Ohio through six clinical sites in Worthington, Dublin (two locations), Grove City, Gahanna, and Zanesville. Core service lines include total ankle replacement (performed at a Stryker-designated Center of Ankle Excellence, one of only 13 nationwide), minimally invasive bunion surgery (FibuLock, MiniBunion 3D), sports medicine and tendon/ligament reconstruction, trauma care, reconstructive surgery, physical therapy, diabetic foot care, lower extremity wound care, diagnostic imaging, and EPAT acoustic pressure wave therapy. Retail physician-approved footwear and orthotics are sold through the Foot Source MD line, and a fellowship program trains the next generation of foot and ankle surgeons.

OFAC operates as a professional services practice earning revenue through patient consultations, surgical procedures, physical therapy, and EPAT treatments (largely insurance-reimbursed with EPAT typically cash-pay via HSA/FSA), supplemented by retail product sales. Customer segments include the general public, athletes, diabetic patients, and medical fellows, accessed via direct appointments, physician referrals, community partnerships (e.g., Match Point Pickleball Club), and a multi-channel digital presence including SEO-optimized website content and active social media on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube. The practice is part of the OrthoAlliance network of orthopedic practices, which provides shared infrastructure including patient portal and billing systems. With 11-50 employees and at least three fellowship-trained surgeons performing 60+ total ankle replacements annually, OFAC has completed over 45,000 surgeries since inception. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.
