About Frank

Frank leads the Orthotics and Prosthetics Department at Our Village Health. He works with people living with mobility challenges, foot disorders and limb differences.

He has extensive clinical experience in lower limb orthotics, custom foot orthoses and prosthetic limb fittings. Every device is built around one body, one lifestyle and one set of rehabilitation goals.

His patients range from children who need developmental orthotic support to adults learning to walk again after an amputation. The measure of success is long-term: moving with more comfort, stability and confidence, one step at a time.
