Alexis Hernandez

Alexis Joel Hernández is a big burn survivor. In 2019 while he was in medical school, he suffered burns in approximately 71% of his body. Alexis has spent the last three years in rehabilitation, which includes learning to use prosthetics on both hands after facing partial amputations in 4 of his fingers. He knows about the importance of emotional and financial support that an amputee needs. For that reason, he decided to join Operation Dez Strong in an effort to help others who have or are facing amputations.
