According to the National Limb Loss Information Center, in the United States there are approximately 1.7 million people living with limb loss. It is estimated that one out of every 200 people in the U.S. has had an amputation. The most common reasons for amputation are vascular complications (mainly diabetes), cancer, trauma, and birth defects. Our experienced prosthetists evaluate each patient’s unique situation in order to provide the most effective and beneficial prosthetic device. Upper Extremity prosthetics are designed specifically for each individual and factors that go into that decision are the patient’s residual limb, their activity level, prognosis, employment and extracurricular activities as well as the patient’s specific goals for a prosthetic device. While each experience of limb loss is unique, many individuals have successfully overcome the loss or absence of a limb and regained function and a positive outlook.
