FAQs
Q: How long does it take to get a prosthetic?
A: Getting a prosthetic is a process, and it’s different for every patient. At Amigos O&P, we guide you through each step so you know what to expect:
Consultation – We start with a free one-on-one consultation where we talk about your goals, evaluate your needs, and explain your options.
Insurance & Paperwork – We work directly with your insurance provider to confirm coverage and handle the necessary paperwork. This part can take a little time, depending on the insurance company.
Design & Fabrication – Once approved, your prosthetic is designed and built in our on-site lab, which speeds up the process compared to outsourcing.
Fitting & Trial Use – You’ll come in to try your prosthetic, and we’ll make adjustments so it’s comfortable and functional.
Final Device – After testing and fine-tuning, you’ll leave with your custom prosthetic designed to fit your lifestyle.
From start to finish, the timeline can range from 10 days, to a couple of months, depending on insurance approvals and the type of device you need. Our goal is always to move as quickly as possible while making sure your prosthetic is a perfect fit for you.
