OrthoPaws is a veterinary orthotics and prosthetics provider serving pet owners and veterinary practices worldwide, with a dedicated facility in Palm Harbor, Florida for in-person fittings and castings when needed.
Several members of our team previously worked at OrthoPets. That experience is here, in the people assigned to your case.
For pet parents
We work with pet owners worldwide and can remotely evaluate your pet's device using photos and videos to help determine the next best steps. In many cases, you do not need a veterinary referral to get started.
For vet professionals and rehab centers
Our team includes case managers who are familiar with veterinary orthotic workflows, including those used by clinics that previously worked with OrthoPets. The transition is straightforward.
For pet parents with an existing device.
Share photos or a short video of your pet and their current device. The more we can see, the better we can help.
A case manager reviews the device and your pet's current needs, then tells you what the right next step is.
We handle adjustments, replacement parts, refurbishment, or fabrication of a new device based on what your pet actually needs.
We stay involved through fitting, follow-up, and any adjustments for the life of the device.
For vet professionals and rehab centers.
Complete our online case form with the patient's clinical history, diagnosis, and any relevant imaging. No phone call is required to get started. If you would like to discuss the case, our Case Managers are always available and you can book a call at your convenience.
After your case is submitted, our Case Managers review the clinical history, diagnosis, and imaging you've provided to confirm whether the patient is a good candidate, typically within one business day.
We guide your team through the impression process. Partner clinics can choose traditional casting or our digital scanning solution, eliminating the need to ship casts and helping reduce turnaround times. Fabrication and quality review are handled entirely by OrthoPaws.
Whether the fitting is performed remotely or at our Palm Harbor location, we are here to support you every step of the way. We stay involved through function review and any adjustments needed to ensure the best possible outcome.
Clinical expertise, clear communication, and genuine availability.
