The Washington multiple-location group has joined the Golden Bear family and expanded the network to Spokane.

(Spokane, Washington) – Golden Bear Therapy Partners, a growing network of physical therapy brands in the United States, acquired Inspire Physical and Hand Therapy on November 24. The Spokane area clinics have served their community for over five years, and specialize in PT and sports injury, pelvic health, hand therapy, and work injury rehabilitation.

The two companies share many of the same values and goals, including striving for excellence and best-in-class service for their patients. Former owner Sean Sipe encouraged a company culture of ongoing education and empowerment, and motivated employees with a succession plan for future leadership.

“Even though Sean is no longer with the business on a day-to-day basis, we were impressed by his ability to grow the clinic and empower his autonomous team,” commented Golden Bear CDO Brandon Ziemann. “Our shared vision created a great opportunity for us to enter into the Spokane market. The go-forward clinical leadership team demonstrates the same entrepreneurial tenacity that Sean Sipe and the Golden Bear founders share.”

The partnership between the two companies will mean more growth opportunities for the Inspire clinics, as well as a more seamless, efficient patient experience. Golden Bear will provide Inspire with backend administrative support and management, allowing the clinicians to focus on providing care.

Inspire Physical & Hand Therapy currently has three clinics in Spokane offering tailored outpatient services. In addition to their in-person services, the clinics also offer telehealth care.
