Our Story
Founded in 1998, Meintjes and Neethling (Pty) Ltd is renowned as one of Pretoria’s most respected orthotics and prosthetics practices, with practices in Rustenburg and Mafikeng as well. Our team includes some of the country’s best specialists and technicians who are consistently aware of the reason we chose this profession: we want to make a significant difference in our patients’ lives. Our orthotics division provides a range of splints, braces and special footwear to help and improve movement, correct deformities and relieve discomfort. These range from back braces that help patients who suffer from scoliosis, to callipers which help patient living with polio to become more mobile.
Regarding prosthetics, we provide the best possible solutions for patients who have lost or were born without limbs. Some solutions include artificial legs, arms, or even bionic hands. Modern technology allows us to produce prosthetic devices that are lighter, more flexible and at the forefront of technology. These include sophisticated imported devices and simple, effective products which our specialists recommend. We are able to supply our patients with products across the price spectrum to fit their unique needs. Although we also supply ready-made orthoses such as foot, ankle, knee and spinal devices, we first ensure that these devices fit our patients comfortably. If not, we make adjustments to ensure the best possible fit.
We design and create artificial limbs ourselves, or provide the best local or international products with the correct adjustments to maximise comfort.
When fitting the prostheses or orthoses, our clinicians make sure that patients are happy with their devices and that the devices work efficiently. This is the result of one or more follow-up consultations.
We are passionate about helping all our patients.
