Patient Testimonials

I first met the Kinetic Prosthetics team in 2014 when I was searching for a new prosthetist. I have been an amputee since I was two years old and I was very dissatisfied with the current care I was receiving. I was in extreme pain and felt hopeless in finding the kind of care and attention my limb required. I tried a few different prosthetists, but from my first visit with Mark, I knew I had found a special team. It took a lot of work and time to find the right setup so my limb could heal, but not once, did I feel like I was being a bother to them. They embraced the challenge and did whatever it took to get me back into a prosthesis and living life. I was able to go back to work, go hiking, rock climbing, sky diving and live my life with no more limitations. For the first time, I felt like my needs and concerns were really heard and understood. What may work for one amputee does not necessarily work for another. Every amputee’s situation is different and we all deserve individual, quality care. I highly recommend visiting with the Kinetic Prosthetics team to find the care you or your loved one deserves! Stephanie L. – Below Knee amputee, 30-year prosthetic wearer

As a first time amputee (above knee for me) one of the most important decisions you will make is your choice of a prosthetic provider. I went with my 'gut feeling' on choosing Mark Nielsen and his staff at Kinetic Prosthetics. My gut did not let me down. The level of professionalism, knowledge and especially genuine care and concern for me as a patient and person were beyond expectations. My prepatory leg was supposed to be a 4-6 month learning process. I was in my prescribed leg within a month. In addition, they helped me immensely with my reluctant insurance company in getting this 'cutting-edge' leg approved and getting me back to as normal a life as possible.

The team at Kinetic thought out of the box and made a harness to attach a prosthetic finger. I now have full use of my left hand and can write and pick up things. They exceeded my expectations and even worked with my insurance company. There is no better place or staff. Without them I would not have the use of my hand like I do now.

When I met with Kinetic they asked 'What do you want from this leg?' and 'What do you want from us?' They are always responsive, compassionate and caring. I've never had better people take care of me. Allie M. – Below Knee amputee, 26-year prosthetic wearer

When I walked in, Mark and Josh made me feel like they knew me. They took a look at the prosthetic that I had (from another provider) and recommended a different system. My new leg is a big improvement. I have more range of motion, and it is more comfortable. I like the fact that prosthetics is Kinetic's only business. They take the time to make sure you have a proper fit. The follow up visits make sure it continues to fit, and they make adjustments as needed. This is hands down the best care and service I have ever had from a prosthetic practice. Mike M. – Below Knee amputee, 17-year prosthetic wearer
