This Veterans Day, we salute the brave men and women who have sacrificed so much in service to our country.

At Ottobock Care, we understand that the journey doesn't end when our veterans return home. For many who have served, injuries sustained during active duty present ongoing challenges that require specialized care, advanced technology, and unwavering support. That's why we're proud to provide world-class prosthetics and orthotics services to veterans and active military personnel across the nation.

Our Mission

Every veteran deserves access to the highest quality care and the most advanced mobility solutions available. Whether recovering from combat-related injuries, training accidents, or service-connected conditions, our team is dedicated to helping veterans regain their freedom of movement and return to the activities they love.

For years, Ottobock Care clinics have partnered with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), TRICARE, and military treatment facilities to ensure that those who served have seamless access to:

  • Advanced prosthetic limbs utilizing cutting-edge microprocessor technology

  • Custom orthotic devices designed to address service-related injuries

  • Ongoing support and adjustments throughout your journey to mobility
