ROC Strengthens Its Patient Care with ActiveEDGE Acquisition
In a significant move to enhance the quality of patient care in the realm of orthopedic services, ROC (Regenerative Orthopedic Center) has officially acquired ActiveEDGE Physical Therapy & Wellness Center, a well-established provider of physical therapy in the Portland area. This acquisition marks a strategic step for ROC as it looks to integrate essential physical therapy services directly into its existing healthcare model, thereby improving coordination and patient outcomes.
Enhancing Continuity of Care
Founded in 2014, ActiveEDGE has garnered a strong reputation within the community for its patient-centered approach to rehabilitation and its commitment to evidence-based treatment methods. With this acquisition, ROC can now offer patients a seamless transition through different stages of orthopedic care— from initial diagnosis and non-surgical treatment to post-operative recovery and long-term mobility support.
Dr. James Ballard, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and one of the founders of ROC, emphasized the importance of having in-house physical therapy capabilities. He noted, "Physical therapy plays a critical role both before and after surgery, helping patients improve outcomes and recover more efficiently. Having a dedicated team within ROC allows for better coordination and visibility into each patient's progress from the very beginning."
Unified Branding for Better Care
As part of this integration, ActiveEDGE will assume the name ROC Active – Orthopedic Rehabilitation. This rebranding aligns the physical therapy practice with ROC's mission and signifies a unified commitment to delivering superior patient experience, improved communication, and streamlined access to comprehensive care.
Dan Morlan, the owner of ActiveEDGE, shared his excitement about the transition, stating, "Joining ROC allows ActiveEDGE to better reach patients at key moments in their care journey. Our shared goal is to provide a truly comprehensive experience, supporting patients from their first consultation through recovery and a confident return to daily activity."
Future of Physical Therapy at ROC
Physical therapy services under the new ROC Active brand are anticipated to begin in the near future, with more details regarding logistics and commencement dates to follow. This development reinforces ROC's dedication to addressing the diverse and evolving needs of its patient population by offering a fuller spectrum of care tailored to individual recovery journeys.
With three locations across Clackamas and Washington County in Oregon, ROC boasts a multidisciplinary team led by experienced orthopedic surgeons. Their focus on delivering both surgical and non-operative orthopedic care has solidified their position as a trusted healthcare provider committed to helping patients return to an active and fulfilling lifestyle.

Similarly, ActiveEDGE has long been recognized for providing personalized rehabilitation services that focus on long-term movement health, strength, and overall wellness. The fusion of these two reputable entities is likely to elevate patient experiences significantly and improve overall healthcare outcomes in the community.
As healthcare continues to evolve, partnerships like this one are vital in fostering integrated, outcome-oriented care that prioritizes patient well-being and recovery. ROC's acquisition of ActiveEDGE marks a pivotal development in the landscape of orthopedic and rehabilitative healthcare solutions, promising a brighter future for patients navigating their recovery journeys.
