Patient Stories

  • Tom Anderson
    Patient since 2007

    “Motorcycle vs. Dumptruck. I was riding the motorcycle; you can figure out the rest. I started out having my foot removed, which was great except I had to get a 1 1/8 inch lift on my other shoe to make up for the material build-up needed for my prosthesis. Because I was so active, I kept developing bone spurs. After 15 surgeries, I opted for an elective transtibial amputation. Since then, no more surgeries, no more pain, no more shoe lifts. My quality of life has improved greatly with my first BK Prosthesis. I had to learn what I could and couldn’t do with the new prosthetic design. As it turned out, there isn’t much I can’t do. I’m pretty rough on componentry by just being me. Don and I always have a good laugh when I tell him what I was doing when something broke. I think I would be the perfect crash test, prosthetic dummy. Don has designed my current prosthesis, and I haven’t broken anything on it yet. Stay tuned!...”

    "Since my accident, and my amputation, I have met many interesting people. Doctors, other Amputees, and my Prosthetist, Don Newton, CPO. Together we have worked hard to get me back to where I am today. I have come along away, and I do things a little differently now, but I am able to do EVERYTHING I want.”

    “A few years ago I was involved in a work-related accident.  My leg got caught in some farming equipment.  It’s been a journey.  I have gone from requiring the use of a cane to being able to walk very well independently.  Thanks to all the staff for their kind, and professional service.”

  • Greg Johnson
    Patient since 1991

    “On April 5th 1968 in Vietnam, I was injured by a landmine explosion that resulted in the loss of my right leg just above the knee. In my 45 years as an amputee, I have used many components and seen many changes. The microprocessor knee has greatly enhanced stability. I feel safer than I ever have with my microprocessor knee. Many thanks to Don Newton and his caring staff for keeping me on my feet.”

    "MOBILITY is more important than my house or my car or any other item you would think is important for daily living. My prosthetic leg is essential in allowing me to live to my full potential. There is no one else I trust to keep me moving." 

    Rex is the owner of his own construction business and works with heavy machinery on a daily basis. Married with two daughters and a son, Rex snow skis, water skis, races off road (including both the Baja 500 and 1000 in Mexico) and is also a licensed pilot.
