We love sharing congratulations and this month we have three accomplishments to celebrate!

First up we have Robert Tyler, who passed his prosthetic board exams and is now a Certified Prosthetist.  Rob came to Dankmeyer in 2016 for his 18 month residency in prosthetics and orthotics. He completed that course of study this past December and now Rob is a Certified Prosthetist. If you would like to read more about Robert Tyler, CP Board Eligible Orthotist, click to visit our Clinical Staff page.  Congrats to Rob from all of us at Dankmeyer!

Next up we have Nina Bondre, CPO.  Nina was featured recently in the O&P Edge Magazine as a recent graduate, prepared to make her mark!  Nina completed her combined residency in prosthetics and orthotics in January 2017.  The Edge article highlights several young O&P professionals and describes the challenges they face in the ever changing healthcare world.  You can read the article by clicking here.  If you would like to read more about Nina, you can click here to visit our Clinical Staff page.

We are very proud of the accomplishments of all of our staff.  But Dankmeyer also has partners in research.  The American Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists had their annual meeting in New Orleans this February. Dankmeyer clinicians Nina Bondre, CPO and Kelsey Kasten, CPO attended the symposium. Megan Hodgson, from Infinite Biomedical Technologies (IBT), presented a poster at the meeting. Megan has been working with Mark Hopkins, CPO and CEO of Dankmeyer, and other Dankmeyer staff on this project.

Please join us in congratulating all three for accomplishing their goals and making their marks!

Congratulations Robert Tyler, Board Eligible Prosthetist Orthotist!

Today, December 14, 2017,  we congratulate Robert Tyler on his first day as a Board Eligible Prosthetist Orthotist!  Yesterday Rob completed his eighteen month residency program in prosthetics and orthotics at Dankmeyer.  Over the next few months, Rob will be studying for his board exams - both written and practical, where he will work with "practice", or test patients.  When all is said and done he will be certified in these disciplines by the American Board for Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics and Pedorthics - becoming a Certified Prosthetist Orthotist. (You can read more about our most recent residency graduates and their experiences in our October news.)

It has been a big month for Rob!  He recently celebrated his birthday, too.  So Happy Birthday, Rob, and congratulations for completing this step in your profession.
