Prosthetic Technicians at 
The London Prosthetic Centre

 
Our technicians are specialists in a variety of lower extremity prosthetics, including leg and knee prostheses. 

Our prosthetic technicians are at the forefront of technology, assembling all of our prosthetic limb builds in-house at The London Prosthetics Centre as we care for over 700 privately funded amputees. A well-fitted socket and well-aligned prosthesis can change an amputee’s life - improving mobility and activity levels, therefore improving the general wellbeing of the user.

We are proud of our work and that is why we offer a two year warranty on mechanical parts fitted and three months on all socket fitting post-delivery. This will help to ensure that the prosthesis you have obtained from our centre helps regain your mobility and live life to the full.
