Prosthesis Centre

At Royal Green Hospital, we have an on-site Prosthesis Centre where you can get a custom-made and fitted device that suits your needs and preferences whether it is a prothesis or an orthotics.

 

Prothesis. Your New Limb. Your New Life.

If you have lost a limb or part of a limb due to trauma, disease or a congenital disorder, you may need a prosthesis or an artificial limb to restore your normal functions and activities.

 

Orthotics. Your New Support. Your New Function.

If you have a limb that is impaired or injured, you may need an orthosis or a brace to support and improve the function of your existing limb.

In both cases, you can get a custom-made and fitted device that suits your needs and preferences.

 

Getting Back on Track

Getting a prosthesis or an orthosis is not the end of your journey but the beginning of a new one. You may need to adjust to your new device and learn how to use it effectively and comfortably. That’s why we also provide Rehabilitation Services, such as Physiotherapy, Hydrotherapy and Occupational Therapy, to help you improve your mobility and function.

We also help you cope with any emotional or psychological challenge that may arise from your condition. We have a team of doctors, nurses, therapists and psychologists who work together to provide the best care for each patient. We care about you and your well-being and we are here to support you every step of the way.
