If you´ve had or need an amputation surgery, you may be wondering
about what comes next. Prosthetic devices can often help replace the
function of an amputated limb. We want you to know what you can
expect as you prepare for your prosthetic device.

Using a prosthetic device is a big change for your body and your
life. The journey will take time, healing, and preparation. But you
won´t be doing it alone. Your VA healthcare team will be there to
support you mentally and physically. You´ll work with prosthetists,
mental health providers, specialized physicians, physical and
occupational therapists, and caregivers. Your team will work with you
to create a plan that fits your needs.
