The Amputee Program is a comprehensive approach to the care and rehabilitation of individuals with amputations. A team of rehabilitation specialists evaluates and prescribes prosthetic devices for those with amputations from a variety of causes. This team includes a Physiatrist, Physical Therapist and a Prosthetist. The care of the amputee begins even before surgery with a preoperative evaluation by the physiatry staff. This care includes assessing and treating the patient as well as teaching the patient what to expect postoperatively. The goal of the treatment is to return patients with amputations to their highest level of function in the community.
