South Texas amputee hopeful after launch of breakthrough program at UT Health San Antonio

Losing a limb is like losing an identity for people, especially if you add trauma to that scenario, but thanks to a breakthrough program at UT Health San Antonio, families will now be one step closer to regaining that identity. UT Health San Antonio recently launched the Limb Optimization Program, which will provide advanced care to patients with complex limb deformities or dysfunction. The program combines limb preservation, amputation care and is the first in South Texas to offer Osseointegration.
