From your first consultation through long-term follow-up visits, our clinicians work closely with you and your healthcare providers to ensure the best possible outcome for your mobility, comfort, and independence.

Your First Visit

Your first appointment allows our team to understand your needs, medical history, and personal goals. This evaluation helps us determine the most appropriate prosthetic or orthotic solution for your condition and lifestyle.
  • Review of your medical history & physician recommendations

  • Discussion of your daily activities & mobility goals
  • Education about prosthetic or orthotic options

Our goal is to ensure you feel informed, comfortable, and confident about your care.

Designing Your Custom Device

Once a treatment plan is established, the next step is designing and fabricating a device that fits properly and supports your mobility. Because Progressive O&P performs fabrication on-site, our clinicians closely oversee every stage of development.

This collaborative process ensures your device is comfortable, functional, and tailored specifically to you.
