History

Established in 1998.

ABC Prosthetics & Orthotics became a reality in 1998, when practitioner/​owner Scott Saunders left his position with a national prosthetic and orthotic company to pursue his own vision. This vision involved Scott’s desire to continue providing the prosthetic and orthotic services he was trained and certified to perform, while focusing on quality patient care, rather than increasing sales numbers. In the current revenue-​driven industry of healthcare, Scott found himself discouraged with the options facing patients today in need of prosthetic and orthotic services. It was then he decided to venture out on his own, to provide the same ethical and moral standards that every patient deserves.

The first office of ABC Prosthetics & Orthotics opened in June of 1998 in downtown Orlando, Florida, and in 2006, the Winter Park office opened for business. Today, ABC Prosthetics & Orthotics has over 20 employees and our 2 office locations service a coverage area of 8 counties, providing service
