“I’m very happy with the result and I can now move freely without pain or discomfort.”
"When it was time for a new socket, I got in contact with my CPO. I’m in very good contact with the clinic, so I emailed them and we set the date right away. Within a week, I had my appointment to discuss this new socket option: Direct Socket.
I am very happy with my CPO and the staff of the clinic because they are very helpful and knowledgeable. My CPO always takes the time to discuss my personal situation: my activities, the challenges I face in daily life with my prosthesis and the questions I have. This is very important to me, because this way, my CPO knows what I need, what I would like and together we discuss my possibilities.
My clinic offers Direct Socket as one big experience: the facility is set up properly and everything is done structured and very clean. It’s also super-fast: instead of waiting two weeks in order to get my new socket, it is now finished in just one day ! I was super exited to get my new socket and it fitted perfectly! I would definitely recommend it to other amputees.
Patient satisfaction and the outcomes are so valuable for me as a prosthetic user. It’s is very nice to see that my clinic acts upon that. It requires a good relationship between the patient and the CPO, good communication and a clean, tidy and up to date facility which offers the best possible solutions. I’m very happy with the result and I can now move freely without pain or discomfort. When I don’t have to deal with that, I can focus on what is really important; doing my daily activities and living a normal life.”
