By partnering with the surgeon, Freedom’s practitioners ensure that a patient will have the best possible outcome for a functional prosthesis and outcome. The team approach of surgeon and prosthetist accomplishes a common goal: restored vitality. By consulting with a surgeon on the exact location of an amputation, sometimes even during surgery, our prosthetists can make sure the best components that benefit the patient will fit. The length of the limb and the amount of surface area for applying the prosthesis makes a big difference. For example, the more surface area there is at an amputation point, the lower the risk of pressure ulcers and blisters. It also increases the leverage area for applying the prosthesis which sets the patient up for better balance. Our team approach is all about making it easier for our patient to adapt to their prosthesis and get on with their life. While we recognize that having a prosthetic limb is certainly a lifestyle change, we believe that it does not have to be a lifestyle-ending one. We stay on top of and trained in all of the latest technologies, systems, and methods. Showing patients those options prior to surgery helps maintain mental wellbeing of the patient.

The early fitting of a prosthesis can offer you a positive alternative to using crutches, a walker or a wheelchair. While your residual limb fully heals and shapes, swelling lessens. A preparatory prosthesis prevents flexion contractures and allows the patient to complete their first round of physical therapy and reach a higher level of activity and regular lifestyle. Preparatory prostheses are built with many more adjustment capabilities for those initial changes every new amputee experiences. A preparatory prosthesis is generally worn for three to six months. DEFINITIVE PROSTHESIS After most of the shrinking has occurred in your residual limb, we will work with your physician to fit a long-term or definitive prosthesis. You call it a permanent prosthesis but it is not the only one you will wear during your lifetime. You will typically need a new definitive socket every 1-2 years & a complete new prosthesis every three to five years. Your definitive prosthesis can have a more finished look, be myo-electric, bionic, or an advanced prosthesis depending on your needs, capabilities, strength and insurance.
