QC Kinetix, a regenerative medicine franchise based in Charlotte, North Carolina, has appointed Peter Holt as its new chief executive officer. Holt, the former CEO of The Joint Corp., brings over 40 years of experience building and leading franchised organizations. His appointment comes as QC Kinetix enters a new period of advancement and expanded impact, with a rapidly growing network of locally owned clinics and an increasing presence across the country.

Why it matters

Holt's appointment reflects QC Kinetix's focus on preparing for the future while preserving the principles that have defined the company. His experience in growing a leading national clinic network will help QC Kinetix strengthen its infrastructure, expand its platform, and continue pursuing its long-term vision of serving more communities with its patient-centered model.

The details

Holt most recently served as president and chief executive officer of The Joint Corp., where he expanded a national franchise system from approximately 300 clinics to nearly 1,000 nationwide, helping create the country's largest chiropractic clinic network. QC Kinetix selected Holt after watching him build The Joint into the country's largest chiropractic clinic network, and his combination of strategic vision, operational discipline, and experience growing a health care organization makes him uniquely suited to guide QC Kinetix as it strengthens its infrastructure, expands its platform, broadens support for its franchisees, and continues pursuing its long-term vision.
