A Medical Missionary's Plight To Save Legs From Amputation
Manage episode 467991266 series 1374780
Reverend and Dr. Don J. Tynes cares so much for his patients. He will drive them across the State of Michigan if need-be to prevent amputation for those suffering in advanced stages of peripheral artery disease, known as Critical Limb Ischemia. He knows it's possible for doctors to at least try to open up arteries below the knee, but he has discovered that so many physicians tell patients it can't be done. He doesn't settle for that. He strives to ensure his patients have all options exhausted to save their limbs before an amputation is considered. He shares what sparked his passion for limb salvage and led him to become a medical missionary for patients with poor leg circulation. #peripheralarterydisease #padsupport #pvdsupport #peripheralvasculardisease #CLI #globalpadassociation
