Forget a prosthetist to build your prosthetic prosthesis device
When a person suffers the loss of a limb for any reason, they are then faced with the task of finding a good prosthetist and figuring out how to get the best possible prosthesis. Wherever one chooses to go for a prosthesis, you may be faced with the harsh reality of limited or no prosthetic coverage in your health plan.
There is then another thing to consider - a prosthetist may only be in want of the next cash infusion to support the business and your needs will fall completely outside of the realm of consideration.
The ADA Act and I have walked on a lot of prosthetic knees . . .
All prosthetic knees are not created equal, and you have to WALK on them to know the difference. That puts "two legged people" out in the cold as being able to make decisions or tell an above knee amputee ANYTHING about what "might" work best for them.
