Malcolm Freedman - Orthotics and Prosthetics

Malcolm Freedman - Orthotics and Prosthetics A dedicated team that designs, manufactures and fits orthotic and prosthetic devices.

We aim to assist individuals in overcoming any physical challenges they may face. By designing, fabricating and fitting orthoses or custom-made braces, I provide care to patients of all ages with neuromuscular and musculoskeletal impairments that limit functional ability. Services include evaluating the patientโ€™s functional and cosmetic needs, designing the orthosis/prosthesis, selecting appropriate components, fabricating, fitting and aligning the orthosis and then educating the patient on appropriate use. We provide care to patients with partial or total absence of limbs, by designing, making and fitting prostheses or artificial limbs. This may include creating the design to fit the individualโ€™s particular functional and cosmetic needs, evaluating the fit and function and then explaining the care and maintenance of the equipment. Access to global sourcing โ€“ introduces products suitable for use in an emergency unit and for post-operative rehabilitation, including leg walker boots, range-of-movement knee braces, wrist and hand orthoses, cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine orthoses.
