Regenerative medicine industry leader QC Kinetix responds to fast growth with new C-suite

CHARLOTTE, NC / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2022 / QC Kinetix, a fast-growing regenerative medicine franchise that is ranked No. 62 on the Inc. 5000 list and offers a cutting-edge, non-surgical alternative to joint and pain relief, today announced the addition of three new executives and the promotion of Scott Hoots to Chief Executive Officer.

Hoots, a 40-year franchise industry veteran, was brought on board as Chief Operating Officer in 2020 to help build the QC Kinetix franchise from scratch. Started as a private regenerative medicine clinic in 2017 and led by founders Justin Crowell, Tyler Vail, and Dr. Richard Schaffer, the chain of concierge-style medical clinics uses orthobiologics to help the body repair or heal damaged tissues and joints without the need for surgery or addictive pain pills.

During Hoots' tenure as COO, the company signed 60 franchise owners, opened 96 clinics, sold 126 markets, and entered into development agreements with 488 franchise units to be built over the next 10 years. As CEO, Hoots' next major growth target is global expansion.

"For me, this is the ultimate opportunity to capitalize on my depth of experience in the franchise sector and build a business that is growing at a historical pace. It is the perfect fit for what I want out of my career, which is to be a leader of a mission-based franchise model," said Hoots. "Our treatments are positively impacting people's lives, and I feel a real calling to continue growing this business."

Founder and former CEO Crowell says the transfer of leadership to Hoots was always part of the plan, although leadership changes came quicker than expected due to the rapid growth of the franchise.

"We (the founders) knew Scott was going to be the right man to lead the franchise when the time came, and the time is now," said Crowell, who is continuing with QC Kinetix as a board member. "He is taking our vision and building a family of QC Kinetix franchisees that are making life-changing treatments available to people all over the country, and soon, all over the world. We are thrilled he is taking over as CEO; we know the company is in good hands and has a bright future."

All three founders are stepping away from the day-to-day running of the franchise but continuing to serve on the board of directors as well as focusing on other related business ventures. Dr. Schaffer retains the important role of leading the medical advisory committee, which will focus on training, research, and development of new treatments.
