In 2011 Proactive Prosthetics were the first clinic to fit the Genium knee and have since been acknowledged as the most experienced clinic in the private sector.
Proactive now lead the way with the new X3 Knee.
The patient Laurence suffered a traumatic amputation in a boating incident at the age of 11, the accident did not stop Laurence’s passion for sports and sailing and at the age of 14 Laurence was awarded the “Raymarine Young Sailor of the Year” one of the most prestigious trophies in the sailing world.
Proactive again will lead the way fitting Laurence with X3 knee, the prosthesis will function as an everyday activity limb but in being water proof and also allowing Laurence to run will effectively provide three prosthesis in one.
Note: The picture shows Laurence receiving the Raymarine Young Sailor of the Year award from Sir Robin Knox-Johnston at the London Boat show in January 2008.
