Meet The Team

Thank you for visiting our website. It is important to us that you know we take joy and pride in serving you. We all see Goodbye Crutches as much as a ministry as a business. Every team member cares about your recovery. The decision to focus solely on crutch alternatives in 2009 was based upon the positive feedback from customers. You can find that feedback along with all the tips we’ve learned from patients here on the site. This site is dedicated to providing you valuable educational information. Yes we do sell products and services, but as Dave Ramsey said “where there’s no profits there’s no ministry”.

I am very blessed to have the opportunity to work with a wonderful team and provide excellent service to all of our website visitors and phone callers. For many people, using Crutches or a Crutch Alternative is out of necessity and is usually unplanned. More than likely they are unfamiliar and overwhelmed with the choices they have found on the internet. Our team is well trained and committed to making their non-weight bearing recovery a more positive experience while finding the right solution for their needs.

Everyone on our Customer Service Team here at Goodbye Crutches knows the value of Excellent Service. We believe our Service is what can truly set us apart. We have a very simple philosophy here, “treat others the way you would want to be treated.” We look forward to serving you!

Hi! My name is Shiffra. Yes Shiffra, that is my real name. I’m one of the people who will answer your calls, emails and bold chat conversations. I’m also the one behind the office theme days. I love being able to help and make people’s lives a little bit easier…but if the Detroit Tigers are playing, I might get a little distracted.

Hi I’m Karey. I’m here to help you find the right product that will aid in keeping you active and mobile while you recover. I will do my best to help you place your order and answer any questions you may have by chatting on our website, responding to emails or calling us. I’m always looking for helpful information to post on our blog too. If you have an idea , let me know.

I’m delighted to be part of the team. Goodbye Crutches prides itself on making service their priority and this makes my main function that much more rewarding. My main role is to build our referral base of physicians. By introducing the doctors and their staff to our service and providing them with the tools needed to help their patients, is very gratifying. It allows each practice to offer their patients other options that will enhance their day to day lives while recovering.

My name is Sheila and I have a background in nursing and customer service. I call physician offices and follow through after a patient has used one of our non-weight bearing devices. During that call I will answer questions about our services and devices, and along the way, and to my surprise, a friendship begins. We stand behind educating and supporting ours patients, and we are here for you 24/7.

As Oprah said about President Obama, I say about Goodbye Crutches, “Its the real deal”. We are here to service you and exceed your expectations.

Tom likes to joke around and call me a website guru… so who am i to disagree with the boss? hehe

But to tell the truth, I’m simply here behind the scenes, working hard to continuously give you a better website experience. It is our goal that through our websites, you’d be able to easily access helpful information and reach us when you have questions. Thank you for visiting us, we hope it has been worthwhile and do tell others about us. We welcome your feedback and suggestions on how our web presence can be of better service!

Hi, I am Schuyler Slone, it’s pronounce Sky-ler, but I am of Dutch origins and therefore the Schuy is the Dutch way to say Sky, so to make it easier, I just go by Sky.

I hope to one day be a sports broadcaster, and follow my one true passion, Michigan Football. I serve as the Public Relations/Blogger and am here to make sure that you get a real sense of how these products have positively affected other people just like yourself, and how these products could positively affect you on your way to a speedy and full recovery.

Hello. My name is Johann. I’ve been with Goodbye Crutches since Novmber of 2009. Over that time a lot has changed as we have grown. Now I do a lot of the training, QA, and repairs on units. Tom jokes that my job is “behold, I make all things like new” My desire is that you receive your unit clean and in perfect working order. I hope you enjoy our product and that it makes your life easier. God Bless.
