We’re joined by Director of Clinical Operations at Ekso Bionics, Michael Glover, and end user, Vicky Garrison on the podcast today to learn all about the Ekso Indego device and its ability to transform the life of someone with a SCI below T3. 

This device is incredibly impactful to allow indicated patients with SCI the ability to regain some independence and improve one’s quality of life by being able to stand and walk again. 

 Vicky shares personal stories of how the device has transformed her life in her short period of time using the device so far. Mike tells us all about the specs, uses, and how it not only allows patients to walk again, but all the secondary benefits it has on one’s life and health. 

Becca forgot to ask Mike and Vicky their favorite quotes at the end, so we're dropping them here for you:
Mike: “Speak less, Listen more. React less, Observe more.”
Vicky:  "Life is too short to be anything but positive."
