Our orthopedic orthotics and prosthetics services
Our certified orthotists, prosthetists and pedorthist are passionate about empowering our patients’ rehabilitation through custom products that support and improve their movement. We work to ensure all our devices, whether custom-made or off-the-shelf, provide an optimal fit for each person’s unique needs – helping to promote fast and effective healing.
Custom orthotics
Orthotic devices, also called orthoses, are used to treat a variety of orthopedic conditions by either adjusting or providing support for a certain part of the body. In some cases, orthoses provide stability (like insoles for shoes), while other times they’re used to limit movement in order to help something heal (like a neck brace).
Orthotic devices can be temporary or permanent, depending on the orthopedic condition and our care team’s recommendation.
Our specialists are experts at fabricating custom orthotic devices for a wide array of conditions. We also provide off-the-shelf options when a custom product isn’t necessary.

- Neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders

Custom prosthetics
Prosthetic devices, also called prostheses, are artificial limbs used to replace a body part due to a birth defect or amputation. Advancements in technology and medical research have made it possible for prostheses to look and move in a remarkably similar way to the body part they replace. Today’s prosthetic devices are also lighter, more comfortable and more functional than ever.
Our experts create custom prosthetic devices for patients of all ages. We’ll work with you to find or fabricate a prosthesis that will improve your movement, functionality, independence and quality of life.
