In this episode of "Mutual Connections," we, had the honor of speaking with Dr. David G. Armstrong, a globally recognized leader in diabetic foot care and the President of the American Limb Preservation Society (ALPS). While Dr. Armstrong’s pivotal work in podiatry and limb preservation is well-known, our conversation took a deep dive into a different yet equally impactful area: the innovation process in healthcare and the critical role of technology in transforming patient outcomes. Throughout our discussion, Dr. Armstrong shared his unique insights on fostering innovation, integrating emerging technologies, and overcoming the complexities of adoption within the medical field. We explored how collaboration across disciplines—connecting clinicians, engineers, innovators, and investors—can bridge gaps and accelerate progress.
