This is my initial review of this facility. I used them once before a few years ago, but this is a…read morenew location for them. It is an initial review in the sense that I was fitted for new orthotic shoes and inserts, and it will be a few weeks before they actually show up, as the inserts are custom made and the shoes have to be ordered from the manufacturer. The facility was very clean and efficient. The employees seemed very knowledgeable and friendly. When the shoes and inserts arrive I will update the review with more information, but I was very satisfied with how things went so far.

I was recommended to go to West Coast Brace & Limb, by my orthopedic doctor. Since I had orthotics…read morealready, I was told to get them adjusted and see how I felt after. West Coast is in Palm Harbor, near my home. I walked in and told the receptionist what I needed to have done. She asked for my prescription and orthodic, then went back to the doctor. When she returned, I was told that he was with another client, being fit for a boot, but it should not be too long. She then went back to the doctor, and when she came back, informed me it would cost $50 for the adjustment. Being in extreme pain I agreed to it. She again went back to the doctor and upon her return, told me they usually deal with appointments only. I took my prescription and left. I do not like to be treated this way. I could have been told up front that they deal only with appointments, instead of being lead along wasting my time.

My 83-year-old mother has Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. She has suffered from the pain caused…read moreby her heels curved in a 45-degree angle for well over a decade. Since she did not live in an area serviced by Westcoast Brace and Limb, she could never find anyone to fit her with the correct Ankle Foot Orthotic (AFO) or brace. That all changed when she moved to the Tampa Bay area. Making our first appointment at the Brandon office with Liz was quick. One call, one appointment. When the day arrived, we met with Walt, a Certified Orthotist. He was the real deal. My mother's condition was complicated, so he had to take his time to find a solution. As he figured out how to find the correct product to use, he called in on his colleague Juan, a certified Pedorthist (a specialist trained to modify footwear). Between the two of them, they came up with a working solution. I prayed that this time my mom might finally be able to walk without severe pain. After a few weeks, I received a call from Liz. The shoes with braces had arrived. Yajaida made sure the insurance authorizations needed were there at the time of our visit. So, that was a big relief. So, we go back to the Brandon office for her first fitting. It went well but more was needed. After a couple of weeks, all the pieces came into place, including my mother, but then came Covid, and like everyone else, we had to shelter-in-place. Ugh! Finally, we got a call to come in. Of course, the office was taking all the mandated health precautions. That reinforced my trust in the team. So, mom tried on her new shoes with braces. She stood up and smiled. Hope, I thought. I was right. She walked back and forth inside the safety of the parallel bars or, as we nicknamed them, "the catwalk." We did have a couple of follow-up visits to make slight adjustments, but thanks to Westcoast Brace and Limb, we finally had a real fix to a decade long struggle. My mom is truly comfortable, stable, and pain-free. Thank you, Mauricio Rosas

When the supplier of my left boot refused to deliver the right boot, we went to their office, only…read moreto find a 1-1.5hr wait just to be seen. Luckily, my orthopaedic surgeon's prescription included a list of suppliers, so I called Orthotic & Prosthetic Center of Tampa from the parking lot of the first supplier, as they were the closest. They were eager to help and told me to come right away to be fitted. Less than 30 minutes later, I was on my way home with my new boot!

I am an above-knee amputee seeking a new prosthetic socket and was simply trying to find out whether the office could help me. Unfortunately, my experience on the phone was very disappointing. The receptionist was rude, dismissive, and made me feel unwelcome from the start of the conversation. Instead of trying to understand my situation or explain whether the office could assist me, I felt like I was being brushed off. At one point, I was essentially told to find somewhere else to go for treatment. As someone who relies on prosthetic care to maintain mobility and independence, being treated this way was frustrating and upsetting. I called looking for help and information, not to be spoken to disrespectfully. I hope management reviews how patients are treated over the phone because first impressions matter, especially for people seeking medical care.
