We assess your needs and custom design orthoses to fit your activity level and lifestyle.  When appropriate we utilize CAD/CAM (computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing) to quickly and efficiently design and fabricate orthoses. The Orthotics and Prosthetics Center is accredited by the American Board for Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics & Pedorthics, Inc.

Our team of orthotic specialists closely observe, examine and evaluate your needs according to your medical history and general physical condition. From this assessment, we design and fabricate an orthosis based on your needs, prescription and functional abilities.

During your first visit, we may take measurements and/or an impression for use in the design and fabrication of your orthosis.  A fitting will be scheduled within a few weeks of your initial visit.  During the fitting your orthosis may be further customized to ensure optimal fit and function.

To schedule an appointment, call the Orthotics & Prosthetics Call Center at (734) 973-2400.
