Orthotists and Prosthetists are health care professionals who specialize in designing and constructing medical supportive devices according to physician prescriptions. Although these professionals sometimes work in both specializations, Orthotists specifically develop medical supportive devices, such as spinal or knee braces, while Prosthetists develop prostheses, such as artificial limbs or other body parts. A physician will diagnose a patient and develop a treatment plan prescription for the Orthotist or Prosthetist to follow. The Orthotist or Prosthetist then evaluates the unique and detailed needs of the patient to design and fabricate an orthotic or prosthetic device that addresses these needs while also reducing pain and providing increased comfort, mobility and stability.
