We're Not Stumped - Centering on life stories of Amputees and the Limb Loss / Limb Difference Communities

Tim Bump, an Oregon native, grew up with a passion for exploring the outdoors alongside his interests in computers, cars, and medical mission trips. These diverse experiences fueled his desire to create, learn, and assist others, leading him to pursue kinesiology at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA.During his college years, Tim played polo for his college team, volunteered for various events, and delved into the world of prosthetics through an enlightening research paper.
After graduation, Tim rediscovered his passion for prosthetics. He embarked on a journey across the United States, visiting multiple clinics and realizing that this profession encompassed all his passions. He pursued a master's degree in Prosthetics and Orthotics at the Georgia Institute of Technology and completed his residency with Fillauer Orthotics and Prosthetics in Tennessee. He also traveled with a group to Colombia and provided prostheses to patients with limited access to care.At Fillauer, Tim immersed himself in his calling, blending cutting-edge and traditional technology to help patients achieve their goals. He gained valuable experience in upper extremity prosthetics while tackling complex lower extremity prosthetic and orthotic cases. Additionally, he managed a pediatric clubfoot clinic at a local children's hospital, offering care to children with conditions such as cerebral palsy and spina bifida.
In the spring of 2020, Tim joined Prosthetic & Orthotic Associates and Handspring to further his growth as a well-rounded practitioner and explore new technologies for meeting his patients' needs.
