For many, amputation is seen as the final step to end the agony of PAD and CLTI. But what happens when you make that heartbreaking choice, and the pain stays behind?

It's Limb Loss Awareness Month—a time for honoring those who have faced limb loss, but also for addressing the hard, silent realities of life after amputation. In this special episode of The Heart of Innovation, hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips tackle Phantom Limb Pain, the "ghost signal" that tortures millions.

We are joined by Dr. John Eidt, Chief of Vascular Surgery at Baylor Heart & Vascular, and David Veino, CEO of Neuros Medical, to reveal a medical breakthrough—a tiny implantable device specifically designed to "turn off" that phantom pain for good.

In this episode, we unpack:

✔️Why amputation isn't always the end of the pain journey.

✔️The science of damaged nerves and phantom sensations.

✔️A new hope: How Neuros Medical's bioelectronic medicine is changing lives.

✔️Essential questions to ask your surgeon before a limb is lost.
