While there are a few major classifications of amputations, every person is unique. It is because of this that Align Clinic treats each prosthetic patient individually. Whether or not you are an athlete, someone requiring a walker in order to shop at a store, or anywhere in between, Paul Burnette will be sure to provide you with the most appropriate prosthetic care. On your first visit, he will ask you many questions concerning your current lifestyle and what expectations you may have. We understand you are looking for a prosthesis that best meets your own unique needs and a prosthetist that can deliver on that promise. With over 33 years of direct care experience, we are confident we can do just that. Whether or not you have been wearing a prosthesis for years, or someone who is being evaluated and fit for the first time, we will strive to make sure you are provided with not only the componentry that makes sense for you, but a socket that fits comfortably and securely. Align Clinic will of course continue to work with you after your prosthesis is delivered, since proper follow up care is imperative for both fitting comfort of the socket and functionality of the components.
There has been some amazing advancements in prosthetic componentry just over the past ten years, from microprocessor controlled knees and ankles, to fingers that move independently. However, we have always understood that even the most modern knee or foot does not mean anything if the socket itself is not comfortable and is designed properly. Paul Burnette has the years of experience and know-how to make sure this is accomplished. He will use all of the tools at his disposal, from years of hand casting skills to using a 3-D laser imaging system when he feels it is applicable.
We very much look forward to meeting and talking with you. Our initial evaluation is always done at no cost. Our main goal is to get you back to where you want to be. With our expertise, and your determination to reach that goal, you are sure to achieve that desire.
