This year, we got to work on something for a very special someone…
With a long night ahead and lots of time on his feet, Santa needed a prosthetic socket that could keep up.
So we made sure it was comfortable and even added a little festive design on the inside.
The smallest details matter even if it’s only seen by him.
We hope we made the nice list for this one.
Wishing everyone a cozy, joyful Christmas Eve from all of us at Optimus!

We started the year with a clear vision: to continue to be the prosthetic practice patients trust for excellent, patient-centered, lifelong amputee care.
We’re closing the year once again rated the #1 prosthetic provider by patients and have supported more than 1,200 individuals on their journey to lifelong mobility.
We wrapped up our final All Hands meeting of the year on Friday, and it was a reminder of how each part of our team plays a role in that impact.
Each quarter we take time to look at what is working, what needs attention, and how we can continue improving care. We share patient stories, review our progress, and make sure the decisions we make keep us focused on what matters most: pairing each patient with the best device for their needs and ensuring they can use it confidently in their daily life.
When everyone is aligned and working together, our patients feel the difference.
As a thank you to our staff, our offices will be closed the week of Christmas, so our team can rest and recharge. We look forward to starting strong in the new year!
We would love to hear how our staff positively impacted your year in the comments ⬇️

As the year begins to wind down, we’ve been revisiting the moments that defined 2025. The Miami Valley Hospital’s Annual Trauma Survivors Celebration stands out as one of them.
This annual event brings together survivors, their care teams, first responders, and families for a day that honors healing and the long road it often takes to get there. Stories were shared from individuals who faced life-changing injuries and fought their way back through intensive trauma care and rehabilitation with the help of the community that stood beside them.
Two months later, their journeys still remind us what resilience looks like. They also highlight the incredible work being done across our local trauma network and the importance of supporting patients long after they leave the hospital.
We’re proud to have sponsored this event again this year and grateful for the chance to celebrate the courage and progress shown by every survivor who took the stage.

Nothing says Thanksgiving like a 5K in the morning followed by an immediate overload of carbs in the afternoon 😂
Our patient, Abby, decided to train for and spend her Thursday morning running a “Turkey Trot”. She hopes that her strength helps others see Christ through her tenacious spirit and life as an amputee.
Having only picked up running a few years ago and trying her first race last year, she says she has found great encouragement from the running community.
Running has given her goals to work towards and a community that supports her, and she is looking forward to even bigger goals once she completes graduate school.
Here’s to being grateful for mobility every day and finding moments to keep moving toward what matters.

What happens when residents meet a world-class para athlete? A learning opportunity they wouldn’t get in clinic or the operating room.
Last Thursday, we hosted the Kettering Health Grandview Orthopedic Surgery Residents for a night of pickleball with Kendra Herber, our patient and the current #1 Women’s Para Standing Tennis player.
After discussing how surgical and prosthetic considerations for elite adaptive athletes can influence long-term success and hearing directly from Kendra, residents were able to see those principles in action.
Instead of just watching, residents jumped into doubles matches with Kendra. Seeing her speed and stability up close made it clear how dialed-in socket design and alignment can support mobility at every level whether it’s a dysvascular amputee learning to walk or an athlete competing for a world title.
A great reminder that the foundations of prosthetic care stay the same even when the goals look a little different.

Today we honor all who have served.
We are grateful to be able to serve some of them in return by helping them regain their mobility.
This clip highlights just one of the many incredible Veterans we're privileged to work with and the progress he's making with Xcel Physical Therapy.
Thank you for fighting for our country and our freedom.

Some of our clinical team recently attended “The Athlete’s Corner,” a continuing education course hosted by in partnership with Eastern Michigan University. This was part of Ottobock’s Full Circle Movement initiative that empowers the community through movement and adaptive sports.
This hands-on course focuses on advanced prosthetic technology, running leg setup, and training techniques for amputee athletes. Our team is proud to stay at the forefront of education that helps patients return to the activities they love.
If you or someone you know is interested in a running leg or wants to explore adaptive athletic options, reach out to Optimus Prosthetics to learn what’s possible.

Goodnight stars, goodnight air…goodnight to a socket designed with extra love and care. 🌙
Our fabrication team brought the classic Goodnight Moon story to life in this little one’s prosthesis. We love customizing sockets because they should be as unique (and adorable!) as the patient who wears it. See our last post for him putting it to good use already.
Every prosthesis we make is fully custom. They are crafted in-house by our own team to ensure the best fit and function. By keeping fabrication under our own roof, we’re able to spend more time perfecting each detail while still delivering sockets faster than most providers.
We maintain this practice because every patient deserves a socket that’s made for their needs and their story.

The difference a few months and a new socket can make 🥹
Kids don’t sit still for long. They’re meant to move and explore and play.
Our job is to make sure nothing holds them back…especially when they have Lightning McQueen shoes clearly meant for speed 🏎️🤭

Attitude is everything.
For our patient, that means wearing her story proudly with a smile and a great sense of humor.
She’s living proof that your only disability in this life is a bad attitude, and we love celebrating the positivity and personality that shine through in moments like this.
Good reminder for the week ahead to find joy whenever and wherever you can!
