Best of Dick Wolfsie: SRT National Prosthetic Center

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Each and every week Dick Wolfsie shares an interesting and exciting story that has a special connection to central Indiana.

This week, we continue our “Best of Dick Wolfsie” series when Wolfsie dropped by the SRT National Prosthetic Center near our studios.

Wolfsie got a detailed showing of the casting process on amputees from John Arnold. 

“We’re start with casting,” said Arnold. “We take this mold and we shape the leg to the fitting process and dialing in that fit so there is comfort and support.”

Since this story first aired, the wait time for prosthetics has dropped down to only one day.

The patient, Mike Benkman has been doing great since this story aired.
