Dr. Safet Hatic II and Dr. Chad Weber have practiced orthopedics in Greenville full-time since 2012, along with Dr. Brent Bamberger, Dr. David Propst, Carla Robinson, PA, and Holly Wolters, PA. Dr. Hatic, OASWO’s foot and ankle surgeon, and his wife, Dr. Anna Hatic, and their two children make their home in Greenville. Dr. Hatic is participating in the run on September 28.
“We are pleased to join the HOPE Foundation in working towards a common purpose: to improve the well-being of our community and its residents, making Darke County a better, healthier place to live,” said Dr. Hatic.
Orthopedic Associates has received a warm welcome to Darke County. A new 3,000-square-foot medical office building is under construction at 732 Sweitzer Street, just across from Wayne Hospital. The new office will open in early November.
“This new office building is another example of Orthopedic Associates’commitment to providing orthopedic health care for Darke County,” said Dr. Hatic. “The new building will allow us to continue to expand our capabilities and help Darke County residents stay close to home for more of their orthopedic health care needs.”
Participants in the SUNshine 5K will enjoy a quality 5K race with electronic chip timing, great door prizes, and a variety of post-race drinks, snacks and homemade cookies. Proceeds from the event will support scholarships to Darke County students and community grants to local non-profit organizations. The SUNshine 5K is part of the Wayne Healthcare Challenge “Get Moving” Series.
