Prosthetic Medic

Follow along on the adventures of an amputee Paramedic. I have now fell into activism/advocacy work for Insurance Fairness for all amputees. I occasionally do some Motivational Speaking, I'm writing a book, and of course blogging all that stuff here. Follow me through all my wins and losses in the fight to break the stereotype of what amputees are capable of. I may write about EMS, Healthcare, Amputees, or Nonsense. Follow the blog and see what today brings!

About Me

Prosthetic Medic
Welcome to the Prosthetic Medic Blog. Back in May 2011 I fell 110ft and after many surgeries I made the decision to have my leg amputated. This allowed me to return to work as a paramedic. Since returning to work I now focus my time on Amputee Right Advocacy and Activism, Motivational Speaking, Writing a Book, and helping new and old amputees see what can be possible if we only try.
