"If it makes
a difference in my getting another step in, Peter [Couture]
will see that I get that extra step. I now have the confidence
that I function as optimally as is humanly possible. And
that's thanks to Peter and his crew at Next Step for paying
close attention to every detail. It's as emotionally wonderful
being there as it is physically."
BJ Miller
physician, age 35
Trilateral amputee
