The people who come to Tom Watson's are as unique as their medical conditions. We see infants with birth defects that call for anything from a foot cast to a prosthetic arm. There are kids who require wheelchair seating systems, a body jacket to correct a curved spine, or fracture bracing after a sports injury.

Some need corrective shoe inserts; others benefit from knee or ankle braces.
Amputees can range from youthful motorcyclists, farmers, and plant workers injured on the job to people who have advanced circulatory system disorders. Our patients come in all ages, colors, and sizes. They are alike in their wish to overcome a physical disability and live life to the fullest.
