  • Topic Info:Levi Hebert was born without a finger and thumb due to a congenital condition, and his family thought he would always live like that.

    But, when they made orthopedic surgeon Bryce Gillespie, all thoughts changed.

    In a cutting-edge procedure, Dr. Gillespie was able to build Levi a fully-functioning thumb from other bones in his body.
