Making a Change in Prosthetist
Well, the guy I was going to let make my leg has flaked on me again. He told me he would make my leg Thurs. or Fri. Now, he's saying he can't come until Tues. I asked him is it going to be a problem when I need an adjustment -- I mean would I have to wait a week or two in between adjustments. He says then that he could give me the name of some other guys, but that he was the only one who makes house calls. I've just got some red flags going up and if I've learned nothing else, it's that I must trust my instincts.I'm going to find someone better and local.

Good for you-- I didn\'t like the sound of this guy in the first place. Also, at a regular prostheticists, they will have all of the machinery, heaters, and PT equip set up to help you learn to walk on the new leg right there. I think that you will be better served by going to an establishment than by this joker coming to your house.
