"My prosthetic leg fits like a glove"

About: WestMARC (Glasgow)

(as the patient),

I received my new prosthetic leg. I had to wait 6-7 weeks after being cast for it which is hard if you are wearing 5 thick socks.

However it fits like a glove. Vincent made sure everything is done to a tee. I am so delighted with it and feel I am walking faster so a big thank you Vincent.

It is just a shame I had so long to wait for it, because when you add up the wait time for the initial appointment it is really quite a long weary time. But thank you for everything!

Thank you for your feedback, I will ensure it is passed on to Vincent.

I am aware there is a lengthy wait for a new socket and we are working hard to look at ways of reducing this. I understand it is highly frustrating.

Many thanks
