Amputee

The amputee program is a young and growing program. The goal is to provide comprehensive care to patients with limb loss across the continuum. We provide in-patient and out-patient services. In 2008 over 100 new patients with limb loss have entered into the program. A joint venture with the Bone and Joint Institute has provided a six bed in-patient program at the Glenmore Park facility. Specialized out-patient rehabilitation is now provided at the new Sheldon Chumir Centre.

The program is also dedicated to medical education.  Physiatry residents spend a mandatory 3 months with us during their residency.
