In 2010 he was certified by the American Board for Certification (ABC) in prosthetics. Ryan has been working for Wright & Filippis since 2000 and is the Clinical Manager of the Rochester Hills Office. Ryan is a lower extremity specialist with experience in hydraulic and microprocessor ankles as well as elevated vacuum suction systems.

There is nothing quite like providing that first prosthesis to a patient and having them walk for the first time in front of their family. Each patient has a story and I get to be a small part of it,” Ryan states.
