Q: How do I find a Certified Prosthetist and/or Orthotist near me?
A: Most certified practitioners and accredited facilities will advertise in the yellow pages, but feel free to contact one of these organizations, and they will be happy to help you directly.
A: There is a very good Orthopedic Resource site called O & P Online Village. This site is a collection of resources for all patient care information. It has various links to scoliosis, amputee, spinal cord injury, and disabled sporting events resources. This site even has links to buy books and videos for these different orthopedic needs.
A: Yes. All of the products available through Freedom Fabrication are dispensed by prescription only. The reason for this is because of the precise nature of the fit and function of these devices. There are literally thousands of variations of each type of orthosis and the only way to ensure that you receive a properly designed, well fitting orthosis, is to deal only with certified practitioners familiar with your specific area of need.
