Career as Prosthetists/OrthotistsThe Good Universities Guide states that Prosthetists/Orthotists assess the physical and functional limitations of people resulting from illness and disabilities and provide prostheses (artificial limbs) and orthoses (supportive devices) to restore function or compensate for muscular and skeletal disabilities, including limb amputation.

Prosthetists/orthotists work within major teaching hospitals, rehabilitation centres and private practice. They may also work for commercial companies that design and manufacture devices for people with disability.
