DENNIS OEHLER: DIRECTOR OF PATIENT SERVICES
Dennis Oehler became a below-the-knee amputee at age 24 as a result of an automobile accident. Determined to resume his athletic endeavors, he tried out for the 1988 Paralympic Track and Field Team. Not only did Dennis make the team, he set a world record in the 100-meter event by running it in 11.73 seconds and went on to win gold medals in the 200- and 400-meter events. Four years later in Barcelona, he set another world record in the long jump and took silver in the 100-meters. He also brought home medals from the Atlanta Paralympics in 1996.
In 1989, Dennis co-created the Fitness for Everyone clinic designed to take amputees beyond traditional rehabilitation. This life-changing program has reached more than 7,500 amputees and 15,000 therapists worldwide.
Dennis served on the board of directors for the American Board for Certification and the O&P Assistance Fund. In 2002, he was named an honorary member of the American Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists.
Although he is now retired from sports competition, he continues to work with Todd to motivate able-bodied and disabled children and adults through educational programs in schools throughout the U.S. and internationally
Dennis will sometimes be the first person the patient sees. When informed that a patient may need a prosthetic limb, Dennis will visit with the patient and family, and explain the entire process of getting a prosthesis. As an amputee himself, Dennis is able to offer encouragement and try to answer any questions relating to the patients fears, many times dispelling those fears, offering reassurance that they WILL get their life back.
TODD SCHAFFHAUSER: DIRECTOR OF PATIENT PROGRAMS
Todd, also an amputee, is there to encourage and challenge the patient. Walking School Classes are available as part of our Gait Training Program.
These classes, which are held at our facility, are geared to enabling the patient to learn to improve their quality of life. Todd is the driving force in getting this done, by offering guidance, assistance and encouragement.
Todd became an above-the-knee amputee at the age of 15 as a
result of cancer. Determined to regain an active lifestyle, he pursued
competitive athletics for the first time in his life. In 1988, Todd
qualified for the Paralympic Track and Field Team and won a
gold medal by completing the 100m event in a time of 15.77 s. In
the 1995 World Games in Germany, he broke his own world
record by running the 100m in 14.55 s. Todd has competed and
medaled at three Paralympic Games.
Along with his athletic endeavors, Todd has worked in the
prosthetic community for more than 20 years. He co-created and
conducted the Fitness for Everyone clinic series that has changed
the lives of thousands of amputees, their families and rehabilitation
professionals worldwide. He co-founded the only Amputee Walking Schools currently being conducted in the United States. Todd participated in the research,
development and marketing of numerous prosthetic products. He
continues to conduct award-winning disability awareness
programs in schools nationwide.
Todd has served on the board of directors of the O&P
Assistance Fund from 1997-2002. In 2002, he became an Honorary
Lifetime member of the American Academy of Orthotists and
Prosthetists.
