Weāve had the privilege of walking alongside Mackenzie in her journey, and itās been incredible to see where she is today.
Sheās now stepping into a new role as nurse educator teaching the next generation.
That kind of impact goes beyond the individual. It shapes how future caregivers see their patients, their challenges, and whatās possible.
Weāre proud of you, Mackenzie. And weāre grateful to be a small part of your story. š

One of our very talented clinicians Josh Millet, CPO recently spent some time with a CNA class walking through the basics of prosthetic care how things work, what to look for, and how caregivers can better support their patients day to day.
Itās always a good conversation, and the questions are usually the best part. The more people understand what goes into proper fit and function, the better the outcome for the patient.
We appreciate the invite and the engagement from the group. If your class or team ever wants a practical, real-world look at prosthetics, weāre always happy to come share about the services we provide.

At Buckner Prosthetics our patients are our priority. That is why we take a hands-on approach to prosthetic care, with the best interest of our patients in mind. We provide quality prosthetic devices, proper-fitting sockets, and access to emerging bionic and prosthetic technologies to meet our patientsā objectives.
We believe that prosthetic care begins with socket design. Without an interface that fits well, the functionality of a prosthesis and the well-being of the patient are compromised. Therefore, we develop custom interfaces for any amputation level and type of residual limb. Buckner Prosthetics is notably one of the leading facilities in fitting below-knee and above-knee amputees. Additionally, we specialize in upper-extremity prostheses.
Our accelerated fabrication for those who travel long distances allows us to fit a prosthesis within days. We create all prosthetic limbs in our on-site fabrication labs, which enables us to ensure fast turnaround times and a high level of quality control. Our technicians utilize the latest techniques and products available to craft prosthetic devices in our state-of-the-art facilities. Buckner Prosthetics is equipped to make precise adjustments, as prosthetists and technicians have the opportunity to work together through out the duration of patient care.
Amputees need lifelong, well-rounded care, and prostheses require continual maintenance. Return visits to Buckner Prosthetics are necessary examine the fit of a socket, the functionality of a prosthesis, and the condition of a patientās residual limb, including the skin and range of motion. We also understand that changes in overall health, activity level, and life aspirations necessitate follow-up appointments.
It is important that a prosthesis remains comfortable, with a secure fit for the amputeeās safety and success. We recommend that patients check their prostheses and residual limbs daily and that they be seen by their prosthetist at least every six months. If you have any questions or concerns about the fit and function of your prosthetic limb, contact Buckner Prosthetics today!
