Yesterday’s session with Ron Rosas put clinical practice into perspective.

A trajectory marked by four-limb amputation, adaptation, resilience, and sustained participation, without simplification.

Our students were challenged to think beyond technique. Clinical decision-making, ethics, and responsibility for long-term function were at the center of the discussion.

Today, they move to practice. Hands-on experience to examine and understand his prosthetic systems in real context.

Thank you so much for sharing your life journey with our students.
