(315) 786-8973 Proudly Serving Military Spouses Melissa’s story reminds us that supporting soldiers means also supporting their families, something we’re proud to do at Howard Orthotics and Prosthetics. If you’re the spouse of a Fort Drum soldier, give us a call to learn more about how we can help you find the right orthotic or prosthetic device for your needs. Melissa’s Story About five years ago, while her husband was stationed in Germany, Melissa returned to the United States over the holidays. She had recently received a new prosthetic leg overseas, but the device didn’t fit comfortably or function the way she needed. With just a two-week window before flying back, our team stepped in to get her a prosthesis that actually fit her needs. We came in early, stayed late, and ensured she had the right fit before her return to Europe. Of course, we’ve continued to service Melissa’s prosthetic needs. Most recently, we’ve fit her with a UNYQ cover, a stylish outer shell that brings comfort and personality to her device. Of course, we’ve continued to service Melissa’s prosthetic needs.

At Howard Orthotics and Prosthetics, our connection to Fort Drum extends beyond active-duty soldiers. We also support their families, recognizing that an Army spouse shares in the sacrifices of military life. One such patient is Melissa, the wife of an active-duty soldier who has worked with us for thirteen years. Melissa also has the honor of traveling the farthest to receive care at our clinic here!
