Tyler Ritchey was born and grew up in Chandler, Az and is the 2nd oldest of 6 siblings. Life was turned upside down for Tyler following a motor vehicle accident where he was struck while on foot, crossing a highway in Mexico City at the age of 21. The vehicle was traveling over 80 mph and took Tyler over 300 feet. He immediately lost his left leg below the knee, the use of his left arm and spent several days to over a week on life support and in a coma. He would spend the next month in the ABC hospital in Mexico, undergoing multiple surgeries to place orthopedic plates and steel rods to help stabilize him for the return flight back to Az.
Once home, Tyler continued to undergo many different surgeries, from joint replacements and reconstruction to several different kinds of plastic surgery that helped with road rash along his scalp and scarring deformities that restricted movement. Tyler has since undergone over 90 different surgeries and procedures these past 20 years.
He earned his degree in Prosthetics Degree from Northwestern University, has his MBA, and is finishing his Doctorate in Business. He was just recently appointed as CEO over Pongratz Orthotics and Prosthetics, who ironically, first met Tyler 2 months after his accident helping him learn to re-walk after they delivered his first prosthetic leg. He and his wife Kristi who is also from Arizona, currently live in Gilbert and have 4 children, Emma, Hailey, Lucy and Seth. He loves spending time with his family, in the gym, on walks, listening to 80’s music and watching movies with friends and families.
Listen to this amazing episode as Steve Cutler and W Myles Reilly talk to Tyler about the grit and determination it takes to keep moving forward while battling the pain that comes with amputation and injury.
