Mixing Playtime with Prosthetics at POA
Micaela, in town from Peru, passes the time playing with POA’s chief canine entertainer, Sarabi, and entertainer-in-training, Kopa. There are no language barriers to FUN! We do our best to make the prosthetic fitting process, which can sometimes be stressful, as easy and pleasant as possible. Micaela gives her new prosthesis a thumbs up, an international symbol for “It’s All Good!” #NoBoundaries

Alex, Hip-Disarticulate Amputee, has a Near-Perfect Gait!
Alex became a hip-disarticulate amputee after a horrific workplace accident. When he arrived at POA a few weeks ago he was getting around as best he could using a prosthesis that was outdated and limited his mobility. We fit him with a NPS vacuum assisted socket system and a C-Leg microprocessor knee, and soon he was walking with confidence–and a near-perfect gait! Today he flew home to Mexico, eager to get back to doing all the things he once enjoyed. #NoBoundaries
