About Us
Why Should You Choose Peak Prosthetics?
At Peak Prosthetics we have established very high standards and gathered a dedicated staff resulting in a high patient satisfaction and loyalty.
Our main objective is to treat individual needs and meet goals of our patients, not just a segment of the body.
We recognize that the process and treatment with a prosthesis or orthotic device can be emotionally difficult. We work with our patients to grasp a full understanding of the process and see the possibilities that lie ahead. Additionally, we take into consideration physical, emotional, and lifestyle challenges.
We strive for a peak level of service and skill creating, fitting, and maintaining the prosthetic or orthotic device while meeting the overall needs of our patients.
Treatment duration is not based on time, but on how to attain the best possible results for our patients.
Peak Prosthetics staff works to establish a strong relationship with our patients and their Clinical Care Team. This is built on trust, knowledge of their needs, and their knowing we will be there for them when they need us.
We have a good working relationship with our physicians and are in direct contact with them throughout the treatment process to ensure optimal outcomes. This enables us to make changes in treatment when necessary as circumstances require.
We understand we are not just fitting a product to fulfill a prescription; we are finding the best solution to fit a life.
We continue to educate and train our staff in the newest technologies including stronger lighter materials, sophisticated microprocessor-controlled devices, 3D Printing, and CAD computer system image capture.
The owners of Peak Prosthetics are on site to make sure the highest standards are met for both our products and the service we provide for our patients.
We invite you to come to our office for a free consultation, meet with our staff and clinicians to help you make an informed decision. The relationship you forge with your prosthetic or orthotic provider is long term. We are dedicated to making this relationship a prefect fit.
