Golden Bear Therapy Partners, a leading provider of outpatient physical therapy and rehabilitation services, announced today the addition of renowned industry veteran Dylan Bates as Lead Independent Board Director.
Mr. Bates brings a wealth of industry knowledge and executive leadership experience to Golden Bear. Bates will be plugged into the organization in a number of key areas and will work closely with Brent Mack, CEO, and the rest of the leadership team to execute on their winning strategies.
“Having personally known Dylan for over 20 years, his passion, extensive industry knowledge, coupled with his commitment to exceptional patient care speak volumes of the caliber of individual we have to join our team,” said Golden Bear Therapy Partners CEO Brent Mack. “He will be a tremendous value-add to the organization and we are thrilled to have him a part of our family. We have won together in the past and look forward to winning with him again”.
Before joining Golden Bear, Mr. Bates spent over 19 years with ATI Physical Therapy, starting in the original clinic as a Physical Therapist and progressing to COO and eventually CEO. Bates’ leadership was instrumental and a driving force as ATI scaled from the original clinic to over 800 locations at the time of his exit from the business.
Most recently, Mr. Bates has served as a board member for several businesses including Southern Vet Partners (a Shore Capital Partners animal hospital platform. Bates joined the board in 2014 when SVP had 2 locations and has scaled to over 300), and Salt Dental Collective, a thriving dental support organization.
