Our mission is to provide technically advanced, specialized and complete prosthetic care for people with upper-limb deficiency while leading the industry in the research and development of upper limb prosthetic technologies. 

That’s why we don’t believe in shortcuts.

Experience has shown us that successful patient outcomes depend on far more than providing the latest in prosthetic technology. They require time, solid technical expertise and creativity. Most of all, successful outcomes require ongoing patient input. Patients are typically the first to become aware of subtle prosthetic fitting issues and a seasoned practitioner like Chris Lake is able to pinpoint and correct any problem.

This is why Lake Prosthetics and Research listens closely to its patients. Our approach combines intensive multi-day fittings with immediate incorporation of patient feedback into the evolving prosthetic device. Our patients never feel rushed and soon realize that they are an integral partner in the ultimate prosthetic outcome.

The end result? A well fit socket interface that’s truly comfortable and empowers patients to return to the activities that make life meaningful to them.

We’ve also found that taking extra care on the front end can save time and money long-term. Clinic visits are more productive and focused, and prosthetic devices are actually worn, instead of being abandoned due to poor fit or a mismatch to the individual’s needs.
