My Orthotics and Prosthetics Glossary

My Orthotics and Prosthetics Glossary My name is Sofyane Bedard, and I study Orthotics and Prosthetics at Montmorency College for one and a half years. I have created this glossary to help Orthotics and Prosthetics students to understand more the vocabulary used by their teachers and their experienced colleagues.

For each of them, you will find a definition, an English pronunciation, a French translation, and an example.
