Bracing and Durable Medical Equipment

Braces can play an important role in recovery by supporting and protecting the site of an injury or surgery. Based on Dr. Sachin Allahabadi’s assessment, you may be prescribed or fitted with a brace.

Our office may be able to provide your brace directly, pending insurance approval. If your insurance does not cover the cost, many braces can also be purchased online. We are happy to provide specific recommendations to help you choose the most appropriate option.

It is important to wear your brace exactly as prescribed in order to achieve the best results. Proper use helps protect the area of injury/surgery, promote healing, reduce pain, and restore function.

If you have any questions about your brace or other durable medical equipment (such as knee braces, slings, splints, walking aids), please contact our office for guidance.
