HOW WE'VEHELPED OTHERSGET THEIRLIVES BACK
In June of 2017 I had open-heart surgery and during the operation I suffered a stroke on my left side. My left leg weakened already, was complicated by my MS condition of some 40 years. Marco developed a brace that prevented my severe drop foot, but gave me the support I needed to walk. It was the first brace that bent at the ankle, which allows my walk to be more natural. I have had several braces over the years, and had been told no brace could do what the Limbionics brace does. The brace I wear every day helps me in so many ways I can’t say how appreciative I am. It is light weight and easily put on and off.Tim Pendergast
I had brain surgery in 2008 that put me into a AFO in order for me to walk. I needed a new AFO made desperately. I didn't have high hopes for a new AFO since walking had become nearly impossible for me. However, Brittany made a new AFO for me that has me not only impressed, but also has me walking again with a single tip cane! I have worn many AFOs over the years and none came close to this one! Office staff was also incredibly pleasant and thorough! I couldn't say enough positive things about Limbionics!Drew Pavilonis

HOW WE'VE HELPED OTHERSGET THEIR LIVES BACK
I have had the honor of working Brittany as my Prosthetist for several years. She is one of the most amazing people and most amazing practitioner I have ever met. Brittany has an amazingly strong work ethic and everything she does, she does with excellence.
Brittany’s warmth and personality truly shine when she works with me. Everything, down to the bathroom, floor and walls are so different from any other office I’ve been to. The Limbionics building and staff are filled with amazing energy. Brittany truly understands her patients and always focuses on OUR best interests. She “gets it” because she was at one time a patient herself.
Brittney’s journey into the field of prosthetics and orthotics is inspiring to me. As a young woman myself, I have always looked up to her and held her in the highest regard. With Brittany, you will NEVER be disappointed! I sincerely and highly recommend her!

Transhumeral amputation, commonly referred to as an above elbow amputation, is when the arm is amputated between the shoulder and the elbow. The chief concern when treating this amputation is weight distribution. We try to remove the burden of the excessive weight of a prosthesis for the patient, by making it easy to use the motions of each joint to balance the prosthesis.
Transradial amputation, commonly referred to as a below elbow amputation, is when an amputation occurs between the elbow and wrist. In this type of amputation, we are concerned with restoring motion of the wrist and hand. Transradial amputations are the most commonly treated upper extremity amputation.
Partial hand amputations can include fingers or part of the hand. Technology advances have allowed for great improvements in the treatment of these amputations. We are now able to provide cutting-edge prostheses for those missing a single finger, multiple fingers or a portion of the hand. Silicone fingers are commonly used, but they are more cosmetic than functional. The partial hand amputations have numerous possibilities for care.
The wrist disarticulation is an amputation that occurs between bone surfaces, rather than by cutting directly through the bone. This type of amputation provides a long lever arm to aid with control of the prosthesis as well as maintaining the ability to pronate and supinate. When the styloids are preserved, they assist with prosthetic suspension. Wrist disarticulation is particularly favored in pediatric amputations to reduce bone spurs and issues of length.
