A TRUE PROFESSION:
A clean NEW house: Split the commercial off from the professional. Totally
revise the educational preparation for entry into truly professional
Prosthetist and/or Orthotist careers with rigorous programs modeled on
medical/surgical practice with specialized residencies of three years and
up. No more self education by trial and error, with journeymen working
on patients/clients at their expense in time and discomfort and money. An
education program for the consumers to eliminate the murky thinking. This
is a clean new house. George Boyer.
