WHO WE
ARE:
Advanced
Prosthetic Systems is a second generation business of
prosthetic care that has over 100 years combined
experience, and has been instrumental in developing many
of the technologies that have shaped the field. This
leadership in the field of prosthetics is unparalleled.
Due to the
increasing need for advanced prosthetics, Advanced
Prosthetic Systems has established a close relationship
with the nation’s leading manufacturers of prosthetic
components. While engaging in daily clinical
operation, Advanced Prosthetic Systems' team of prosthetists is
developing exciting new technologies that will improve
the lives of people with disabilities. Some patients may
even be asked to help test devices that are currently
under development and provide valuable feedback to the
research and development team.
In today’s
reimbursement world, the final word on the makeup of a
prosthetic limb often comes from the government or
private insurer. It is a sad reality that the prosthesis
an amputee receives today is more a reflection of what
the funding source will pay for than what the patient
desires or needs. The staff of Advanced Prosthetic
Systems is dedicated to
providing every patient entrusted to our care with
lifetime care and the most-appropriate replacement limb
for that individual’s state of health, functional
capabilities, personal desires and economic situation.
