Amputees deserve much more than just a prosthesis they should be given the opportunity to resume full participation in all aspects of their daily life. And that's what they receive... when they become members of AmpuTeam.
The AmpuTeam program redefines what it means to provide prosthetic care. The primary objective of AmpuTeam is to offer each amputee opportunities to learn the skills necessary to achieve their unique individual functional goals this objective is met by enhancing the services and cooperation between the patient, family members, physicians, therapists, Wright & Filippis, and other rehab professionals. Together, we form AmpuTeam. AmpuTeam clearly offers a distinct advantage over the traditional, limited services provided by most prosthetic companies. Through this Team Approach, everyone benefits.
