What do our customers think?

"Without the AFO brace from South West Orthopedic Designs, I would not be walking or working. With the AFO on, I am very active. I work as an electrician. I climb ladders, bend conduit, and troubleshoot machine control circuits. All of these activities require standing and walking. In my spare time I bicycle and use a foot scooter to exercise with. I walk 9 holes of golf, too. I sometimes wear (my AFO) for up to 20 hours at a time. With out the (South West) AFO, I could not do these things." J.H., Texas

"I have been wearing (the South West AFO) for three days now, and I can tell a big difference. I even walk straight and without the limp I have had for a few years. The pain is no where near where it was in my feet and ankles. I would recommend you all to anyone I know who has problems with tendonitis or any kind of problem with their feet. These are the best thing that has ever happened to my feet." Tammy Stanley, Virginia
