Circulator Boot Mastead
Patient's Perspective

Circulator Boot patient avoids amputation and sees signficant progress with initial treatments

Hello:

It has been a year now since I called you to explore the Circulator Boot  option for my mother.  She had been told that amputation was the only relief for her severe leg pain and ulcerated toes. 

While I am sure you will not remember, I called you out of desperation after her doctor advised me to prepare to place her into a nursing home after her amputation surgery. 

Your staff quickly put me in touch with the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN and the next day she was in route. After her first boot treatment, she slept in a prone position for the first time in months. 

Several boot sessions led to some rework in her angioplasty. The boot was used moving forward and I am very happy to say she never made it into the nursing home.  She lives on her own to this day and walks more than she has in years.  We are forever grateful for your caring attention and direction. 

Without you, she would be an amputee and a very sad one at that.

Please feel free to contact me for an additional testimonial or use this in any way that you see fit!

Best regards,

SM
