United Prosthetics provides custom prosthetic and orthotic care across Massachusetts, including upper and lower-extremity prosthetic solutions and orthotic devices to support mobility, function, comfort, and independence. Our team works with patients, families, referring providers, therapists, and care teams to support each patient’s goals from evaluation through follow-up care.
United Prosthetics combines more than a century of experience with precise, individualized prosthetic and orthotic care. Our team uses advanced technology and full on-site fabrication to create custom devices designed around each patient’s comfort, function, mobility goals, and daily life.
We support patients and care teams through evaluation, documentation support, device design, fitting, follow-up, and ongoing adjustments. From the first consultation through long-term care, United Prosthetics is committed to helping each patient move forward with confidence and support.
How early should I contact a prosthetist?
It’s never too soon to connect with a prosthetist, whether you are preparing for an amputation or recovering after surgery. There is often a gap of several weeks to a few months between surgery and the start of prosthetic fitting, and this is a valuable time to get ahead.
During this period, you can discuss your prosthetic goals, explore different prosthetic technologies and prosthesis design options, and start any necessary insurance approvals or documentation. We also offer the opportunity to connect with experienced patients who can share their perspective and provide support during this transition.
To get started, schedule a free consultation with our team. We guide patients through every step of prosthetic care, from evaluation and measurements to the design and fitting of a custom prosthesis, along with ongoing follow-up care. You can call us at 617.436.6110 or fill out our contact form.
Do you accept insurance for prosthetic and orthotic care?
Yes. We work with most major insurance providers and help verify your benefits. Our team explains your coverage, handles claims, and helps gather any required prescriptions, referrals, and prior authorizations. If you have questions about your insurance coverage call our team at 617.436.6110.
How much does a prosthetic or orthotic device cost?
The cost depends on the type of device, materials, level of customization, and technology involved. At United Prosthetics, we provide individualized cost estimates during your consultation and help you understand insurance coverage and payment options.
Where are you located and do you serve patients near me?
We have locations in Dorchester and Quincy, Massachusetts, and serve patients throughout Eastern Massachusetts, including Boston, the South Shore, North Shore, and MetroWest.
How long does it take to receive a custom prosthetic or orthotic device?
Timelines vary based on the type of device, clinical needs, insurance requirements, fabrication, and fittings. Most custom prosthetic and orthotic devices are completed within several weeks, and our team will walk you through the expected timeline during your evaluation.
United Prosthetics works with referring providers, therapists, rehabilitation teams, case managers, and other care partners to support patients who need prosthetic or orthotic care. Our team helps coordinate documentation, insurance requirements, evaluations, fittings, and follow-up care so patients can move through the process with clarity and support.
How do I refer a patient to United Prosthetics?
Providers may refer a patient by calling our office, submitting information through our contact form, or sending the required prescription and clinical documentation. Our team can help confirm what is needed based on the patient’s device needs and insurance requirements.
Do you coordinate with referring providers and care teams?
Yes. United Prosthetics works with referring providers, therapists, rehabilitation teams, case managers, and other care partners to support appropriate device selection, documentation, fitting, follow-up, and long-term patient care.
