As part of Anne Arundel (AA) County Business Appreciation Week, a team from the Anne Arundel County Economic Development Corporation (AAEDC) visited Dankmeyer on Wednesday 10/22/25. Led by AA County Executive Steuart Pittman, the delegation toured our Linthicum Heights location to understand the prosthetic and orthotic business and to establish a relationship on which we can build future collaborations. The AAEDC has resources available for county businesses including financial, workforce development programs and business leadership and networking opportunities. Getting to know the businesses in the county well allows the AAEDC to make the right connections and share the right resources more effectively.
To host the visit, Mark Hopkins, PT, CPO, MBA was joined by Angie Bryl, CPO, Sheryl Sachs, CPO, Jeremy Halteman, CPO and Lukas Baner, CTPO along with patient ambassadors David McCrae and Ernest Rhoney. They spent time with the AAEDC team to help them understand our 71 year history and our 30 years in AA County, our business and how it works and the impact Dankmeyer has on the community as an employer, provider of care, and purchaser of services in Maryland and AA County. The delegation toured the newly renovated facilities, watched demonstrations of prosthetic fabrication, and asked insightful questions about Dankmeyer and prosthetics and orthotics.
It was a great success and a lot of fun! We are looking forward to connecting with members of the visiting team and their colleagues to develop the relationship further and learn more about how we can help each other. We invited them to come back again next year, or anytime they are in the area and just want to stop in and see how we are doing. As part of our mission, Dankmeyer serves our communities with pride and we were happy to share this with the AAEDC team.
