"I really don’t know of anything that I can’t do now. At the beginning, I didn’t think I could do anything. Just the simplest acts seemed like an impossible mission to me."

"It’s a very difficult process to go through. I lost my arm and you think to yourself mentally the entire time, “How can I function in life? How can I go on with life?” It’s just a mental process you’re going through. Virginia Prosthetics works with you. They talk with you. They help you trouble shoot yourself. Just keep in the back of your mind that you can do whatever you did before."

"Take inspiration from other amputees who have already paved the way and let your prosthetist keep you up to date on the constantly improving industry. The new leg I have is just great. I feel like I’m walking on a foot again. Most people can’t tell I even have a prosthesis."

"I work primarily with pediatric patients. Virginia Prosthetics handles my pediatric orthotics, and any other kind of orthotic device that will help a child walk and correct orthopedic deformities. I've been in the area and working with Virginia Prosthetics since 2001.

They're the only orthotists I work with because they foster the most team communication. When I have a child there, they call me to keep me informed of what's happening. I've worked with Virginia Prosthetics' practitioners Rusty, Todd and Steve and have good relationships with all of them.

Patients' parents are very pleased with Virginia Prosthetics in terms of turnaround time for delivering orthotics, their availability for adjustments, and scheduling flexibility. If I have a child that needs to see them right away, they can accommodate for that."

Executive Director - Blue Ridge Independent Living Center
Blue Ridge Independent Living Center assists people with disabilities and helps them return to an independent lifestyle. Oftentimes these individuals need a prosthetic or orthotic device to help them live independently.

We’ve worked with Virginia Prosthetics for about 10 years and together, we’ve helped people with disabilities meet their independent living goals.

Virginia Prosthetics has been very good to work with. They provide patients with services in a timely manner and our patients are tickled to have them help in meeting their independent living goal.

It’s been a wonderful experience.
