SAM SANTA-RITA, CEO, CP LP

“SRT was founded based on the belief that the patient’s well-being comes first. SRT’s mission is to help people; one of the ways we do that is to provide prosthetic devices that improve people’s lives. Helping people live better, more meaningful lives, fires me up. I never really leave work; I am constantly thinking ‘we can keep improving.’ Maybe that’s a character flaw, but it serves our patients well…”
