Niels Linschoten, Gets
Louisiana Dad Dancing
Again
Just a few weeks ago in Carencro, Louisiana, you could watch
Shawn David and his youngest daughter dancing on stage
together at her recital in their "Daddy-Daughter" dance.
Almost 9 years ago, Shawn was
in a car accident that caused
multiple fractures in both legs and
an excessive amount of blood
loss.
Through the course of physical therapy to learn to walk on his prosthetic,
he realized there was still a massive amount of debilitating pain in his right
leg, particularly his knee.
Several doctors turned down the
opportunity to do surgery due to the
concern that if there were any
complications, it could result in the
need for amputation of his right leg.
Then he was referred to
Dr. Niels Linschoten in
Baton Rouge.
Dr. Linschoten did what others could not.
At the first meeting with Dr. Linschoten
in Baton Rouge, Dr.Linschoten
assured Shawn that he could do a
knee replacement surgery that would
relieve him of his pain.
Linschoten assured Shawn that he could do a knee
replacement surgery that would relieve him of his pain.
He specifically stated, "Both
got me walking. The knee
replacement much better."
Since his knee replacement surgery, he walks on a regular
basis, which he associates with his significant weight loss.
Shawn and his wife Lauren
said, "We are forever grateful
for Dr.Linschoten."
