SAN ANTONIO – Doug Roberts lost his left leg a year ago, but it could have been worse.
It could have been his life.
The San Antonio pastor’s leg was amputated in June 2023 as the result of a flesh-eating bacterial infection he believes he acquired during a visit to a theme park.
He then spent more than two months at Methodist Hospital’s Stone Oak Rehabilitation Center, doing physical therapy three times a day.
On Friday, Roberts came back to visit the staff who helped him adjust to his new way of life.
Before starting at KSAT in August 2011, Ken was a news photographer at KENS. Before that he was a news photographer at KVDA TV in San Antonio. Ken graduated from San Antonio College with an associate's degree in Radio, TV and Film. Ken has won a Sun Coast Emmy and four Lone Star Emmys. Ken has been in the TV industry since 1994.
