In this episode of The Heart of Innovation with hosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips, we are kicking off PAD Awareness Month to raise awareness of peripheral artery disease (PAD), a disease more prevalent and deadlier than most cancers combined. Leg pain, leg cramps, and neuropathy are all indications of poor circulation that could signal PAD.
We begin our celebration with the first of 40 Global PAD Impact Awards, honoring the most impactful contributors in the space. The Global PAD Association proudly recognizes “Amputation Nation” by Even Keel Productions with this year’s Best PAD Awareness Video Award!
Producers Chris Wooley and Wayne Dickmann have created a powerful visual narrative that exposes the hidden epidemic of preventable amputations in America. Through compelling storytelling and expert testimonials, their documentary shines a crucial light on peripheral artery disease and its devastating consequences when left undiagnosed or undertreated.
“Amputation Nation” stands out for its emotional impact, educational clarity, and exceptional production quality—inspiring viewers to recognize symptoms early and seek proper vascular evaluation before amputation becomes the only option.
To watch this episode later, and actually see the award-winning video, go to YouTube.com/TheWayToMyHeart. If you think you have symptoms of PAD and need to talk to someone and/or find advanced care in your area, call the Global PAD Association’s Leg Saver’s Hotline at 1-833-PAD-LEGS or go to padsupportgroup.org.
