Ryan is no stranger to the San Gabriel Valley. He grew up
in Sierra Madre and San Marino and now makes his home in South
Pasadena. Ryan enjoys an occasional trip to the beach to surf
or to the local ski slopes, his favorite being June Lake,
CA. He is also an avid deep-sea fisherman and recently won the 2005 Black 'n Blue Marlin Tournament.
Roger Molina, CPO (Certified Prosthetist & Orthotist)
Roger is the original owner of the company, which has been
in the business for over 35 years. He has designed and manufactured
thousands of artificial limbs and braces over the years. Five
years ago he transferred ownership of the family business
to his son Ryan Molina CO.
Roger's father, Henry Molina, was wounded during World War
II at 18 years of age. Due to the severity of his injuries
the doctors were forced to amputate his left leg above the
knee. Upon returning home, he requested training from the
government for prosthetics because "as one who wears
one, I can learn how to make them." He became a Certified
Prosthetist and both sons followed proudly in his footsteps.
Then in 1971 Molina Orthopedic Labs, Inc. was born.
Roger has a home in Cave Creek, Arizona and commutes twice
a month. He and his wife enjoy spending time together on their
property taking care of their horse and goat along with running
and hiking in the nearby state parks and mountains.
