Doug Turner, CP BOCO
Doug is well known to the prosthetics world. As a 10 year old, he lost his left leg above the knee to cancer. Since then, he’s walked on every possible type of prosthesis, from wooden legs to his current computer driven knee. After moving to Missoula in 2000, Doug decided it was time to give his patients their finest care, and opened in WMOP in 2006. Doug was born and raised in Michigan, and earned his Bachelor’s degree from Michigan State University. He then went on to earn his Prosthetics Certificate from Florida International University. He has been certified in, and has treated patients in both orthotics & prosthetics for 25+ years. WMOP was founded on the firmly held belief that people with amputations can return to a productive life, and should be able to receive the best care in their hometown. With that ideal in mind, Doug brings both his personal and professional experiences with him into patient interactions. It's an honor to serve patients at WMOP. In his free time, Doug enjoys family, his small acreage farm, and spending time in the outdoors hiking and biking.
