Dallas, TX (December 11, 2020) – DJO, LLC (“DJO” or the “Company”), a leading global provider of medical technologies to get and keep people moving, today announced the acquisition of LiteCure®, the parent company of Companion Animal Health.​ This purchase provides an opportunity for DJO to transform the veterinary industry by commercializing their globally-recognized, market leading recovery sciences products, into innovative care solutions designed for veterinary applications.

The Companion Animal Health brand provides a strong entry point into the thriving animal health space and brings with it an accomplished, dedicated animal health team.
