CLIENT SUMMARY


When Dr. Bob Foster, a triathlete in peak physical health, and one of the nation’s highest-volume interventional cardiologist, suffered a second ruptured disk—an injury that caused a month-long paralysis in one of his legs and left him out of the cath lab for two years—he knew it was time to do something about the heavy lead aprons that he believed were the cause of his injuries. The solution was Rampart. Together with a team of designers and engineers, he created a fully adjustable and portable system that provides proven, full-bodied, radiation protection for doctors and their technicians. With Rampart, interventionalists across the nation and around the globe can finally experience comprehensive, apron-free radiation protection—so they can do what they are passionate about and what they do best, in a safe and team oriented environment. Rampart IC exists to create and identify products to assist medical staff with an emphasis on radiation protection and orthopedic solutions in the interventional space. Rampart aims to be spirit-led and guided by a higher purpose in solving problems. Their team leverages personal giftings to maximize the specific talents of their team.
