Overview

Amputee and prosthetic regional specialist rehabilitation

We assess, provide rehabilitation and support people following upper or lower limb amputation or because of a condition that's present from birth.

We'll decide what treatment you may need. If suitable, this could include a prosthetic or artificial limb.

We offer a specialist counselling service for you and your families. We also provide prosthetics care for veterans of the armed forces who live in our treatment area.

  • Guy's and St Thomas' hospitals
  • King's College hospitals

Other hospitals that refer to us are:

  • University Hospital Lewisham
  • Croydon University Hospital
  • Queen Elizabeth Hospital

  • counsellors
  • prosthetics
  • workshop technicians
  • a healthcare assistant
