Each time you visit us for follow up we will evaluate your progress and the condition of your prosthesis or orthosis. Because we are committed to providing the best care possible if we find anything that might be improved upon we will make changes or adjustments right away. We have created a $300,000 lab facility in our building to allow us to handle most improvements while you wait. This rapid-response approach allows us to address any concerns or problems without asking you to be without your prosthesis or orthosis until you can schedule an additional visit.
Follow up visits can vary tremendously in the amount of time required because we can't anticipate if minor adjustments or major alterations will be required. Significant changes made for one patient can result in a wait for subsequent patients.

The scope of our practice also includes a commitment to meeting the needs of hospitals throughout Southern Maine. This responsibility means that we frequently respond to trauma cases on an emergency basis and this can impact our day's schedule as well.
We appreciate your patience. Please be assured that our staff is doing everything possible to minimize any inconvenience for you. If you are ever in a situation where you feel you are unable to wait please speak with our office staff and let them know. If we are unable to accommodate your schedule we will be happy to reschedule your appointment for a different time.
While waiting for your appointment, please feel free to visit our Public Resource Center on the 3rd floor and take the opportunity to review the books, pamphlets and videos available or use our high speed computer to visit our web site. Information is available on a wide range of subjects that affect your health. Just let our staff know that you'd like to visit the Center and they will contact you when you are ready to be seen. Videos may be viewed in any of the exam rooms while adjustments are being made, just check with your practitioner. |
