Prosthetics & Orthotics

Whether it’s because of an injury, illness or simply how you’re made, our prosthetics and orthotics team is dedicated to helping you with your specific movement and cosmetic needs.

We recognize and honor that every situation is unique. Our P&O specialists can create personalized devices that help you have the fullest possible use of your arms, legs or any body part.

What are Prosthetic Devices?

Prosthetics are devices that replace the normal motion of a lost or absent body part. 

A prosthetic device is custom-designed and made to your specific needs. They can restore your appearance and functioning when you’re missing a critical part of you.

What are Orthotic Devices?

Whether it’s to help with healing or just daily movement, our bodies sometimes need extra support. Orthotics are braces that help with the comfortable and useful movement of your arms, legs or other parts of your body.

UVA’s Prosthetics and Orthotics team has the advanced experience, training and resources to provide you with a comfortable, custom-designed and custom-fitted device that gives you the stability and movement you need and look you desire.
