Don Elgin - Paralympian

I first came in contact with David Howells after a fellow Paralympian suggested that I could run faster if I had a better leg, he suggested the best person to make that leg was David Howells. Sounds simple but to leave the team that had helped me make it to Paralympic level I found difficult.

Looking back now I know that I did the very best thing for my career as an elite athlete by partnering with the team at APC Prosthetics.  I now have all my legs made at the APC Prosthetics. As a Paralympic Pentathlete doing 5 events, this means a number of different legs.

An obvious difference with having legs made at the APC Prosthetics is when you leave with a new leg you know it is going to be some time before you need to go back. This is a clear reflection of the team at APC Prosthetics, their willingness to explore new ground and genuine interest in patience well-being provides the best possible outcomes.

A clear advantage with APC Prosthetics is the established partnerships with the leading edge suppliers of the finest equipment available, coupled with the expertise and product knowledge of the team fitting the components the team at APC Prosthetics are in a league of their own when it comes to complete care of amputees.

As an elite athlete I continue to push my body to the limit and I know as long as APC Prosthetics are with me in my journey, then there will be nothing holding me back.

I can not speak more highly of the team at the APC Prosthetics and value greatly the role that they have played both on and off the track with not only my results as an elite athlete but my quality of life as a very active amputee.
