“This surgery gave me my life back.” 💙

After a 2,000-pound beam crushed his leg, John faced a below-the-knee amputation and years of chronic pain. Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) by orthopedic surgeon Dr. Russell Holzgrefe at Ascension Sacred Heart changed everything. Now he is walking, swimming, and living fully again.

During Hispanic Heritage Month, we honor the heritage of colleagues across our ministry through stories like Dr. Castaño's.

His parents worked tirelessly to give him a better life. Their determination opened doors for him, and he carries their legacy forward by serving others.
