"Prosthetic Restoration Project"

Weekly Program

February 23 @ 7:15 am - 8:30 am

Doug Pinkley - Co-owner

Center for Prosthetics Orthotics Inc Doug, along with another prosthetist Garth Knapp, took over the program management of the La Paz clinic 5 years ago. Normally Doug goes to the clinic twice a year for two weeks each time. The type of help given patients includes diagnosis and solutions such as artificial limbs, braces, etc. As knowledge of our clinic grows by word of mouth in both Baha California and the mainland, patients come from hundreds of miles away as there are very few options for those who cannot afford to pay for their care.
