Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

(a) On March 11, 2008, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Rochester Medical Corporation (the "Company"), after a review of proposals for audit services from several public accountants, decided to engage Grant Thornton LLP as independent registered public accounting firm of the Company for the fiscal year commencing October 1, 2007 and ending September 30, 2008. McGladrey & Pullen LLP ("McGladrey & Pullen"), the current independent registered public accounting firm, was dismissed by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company as of March 11, 2008.

In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended September 30, 2007, and the subsequent interim period through March 11, 2008, there were no disagreements between the Company and McGladrey & Pullen on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of McGladrey & Pullen, would have c aused McGladrey & Pullen to make reference in connection with their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement.

There were no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-K Item 304(a)(1)(v)) during the two most recent fiscal years of the Company ended September 30, 2007, or the subsequent interim period through March 11, 2008.

The audit reports of McGladrey & Pullen on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.

A letter from McGladrey & Pullen LLP is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

(b) On March 13, 2008, the Audit Committee of the Company engaged Grant Thornton LLP as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the s ubsequent interim period through February 29, 2008, the Company did not consult with Grant Thornton LLP regarding any of the matters set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
