Grace Prosthetic is proud to participate in St. Petersburg College Orthotics & Prosthetic Clinic rotation program. Every semester we have new students that come to our facility to learn “hands on” experience. This semester we have three students, Justin Ruechel, Jessica Imhof and Anthony Martinjak. We are proud of these students and wanted to feature them in our blog this month.

Justin Ruechel is a senior and in his final semester at St Petersburg O & P program. He is interested in CAD/CAM technology and lower limb prosthetics. He is currently in pursuit of residency opportunities both in the state of Florida and out. He is especially excited about graduating and getting to have a positive effect on the advancement of the O & P profession.

Jessica Imhof is a junior in the Orthotic & Prosthetic program at St Petersburg College. Upon graduation, she would like to complete her residency in both Orthotics and Prosthetics. After many years of practice, she would like to give back to the O & P program by teaching at an O & P program.

Anthony Martinjak is also a junior in the O & P program at St Petersburg College. Upon graduation, he would like to do his residency out of state, perhaps in Colorado or California. He did his first clinical rotation at a local hospital, which got him interested in that aspect of the O & P field. Eventually he would like to open his own practice.
