Bariatric Prosthesis Options Available for Patients 350 lbs and Above

The extra weight can add a great deal of stress on the body and the mind.

This is alarming for many reasons, but especially because the obese population is more prone to complications like diabetes and vascular disease that can then lead to amputations.
