Patterson announced that James W. Wiltz, president and CEO, will retire at the end of the current fiscal year (April 24, 2010). He will be succeeded by Scott P. Anderson, currently president of Patterson Dental Supply.
Anderson, 43, has worked with Patterson since 1993. Prior to June 2006 when he became president of Patterson Dental Supply, Anderson held senior management positions in the dental unit, including vice president, sales, and vice president, marketing. Anderson started his career as a territory sales representative in the dental business before becoming national equipment manager, manager of the San Francisco, branch and manager of the Minnesota branch, two of Patterson's largest dental branch offices, the company said in a press release.
Patterson said it expects to name a new president of its dental business within the next few months.
