Custom Care for Growing Bodies
At Lethbridge Orthotic-Prosthetic Services, we understand that children have unique needs when it comes to orthotic and prosthetic solutions. Our pediatric services are designed with the delicate balance of providing support while accommodating rapid growth and development. We specialize in creating custom-fitted orthotics and prosthetics that not only assist in mobility but also support the natural development of your child's body.
Tailored Solutions with a Gentle Touch
From infants to adolescents, our team approaches each case with a gentle touch and a deep understanding of pediatric conditions. Whether it’s supporting congenital disorders, aiding recovery from injury, or enhancing mobility, our custom devices are made to be as comfortable as they are effective. We have vast experience in the full range of pediatric treatments, from preventative sports orthotics for young athletes to specialty orthoses and products for conditions such as plagiocephaly, scoliosis, and club foot. We use lightweight, durable materials that can keep up with the playful nature of children and withstand their active lifestyles.
A Supportive Environment for Families
We believe in a collaborative approach, working closely with families, pediatricians, and other healthcare providers to ensure a holistic care plan that addresses all aspects of your child's well-being. Our clinic offers a friendly, welcoming environment where children and their families can feel comfortable and supported throughout their treatment journey. We provide thorough consultations, fittings, and follow-up appointments to adjust to your child’s growth and evolving needs.
