Dorset Prosthetic Centre Appointments

How do I make an appointment?

Please contact the Dorset Prosthetic Centre on 0300 019 4363. The Centre makes every effort to give patients an appointment at a time of their choice. Please notify us if you are unable to attend, as your appointment can then be given to another patient.

The Centre aims to see clients within 30 minutes of their appointment time (or time of arrival if later than appointment time) If late arrival, we can not guarantee to continue the appointment.

If this standard is not met the Centre staff will explain the reason why. Therefore clients with a planned appointment will be given priority over those clients who arrive for an emergency repair without an appointment and over those who arrive late for their booked appointment.

Adjustments and minor repairs can be carried out on the same day subject to the availability of components if required. Should major repairs be required, the prosthetist will endeavour to complete these within 25 days - this is dependent on the availability of any required parts. We will keep you informed if there are any unforeseen delays.

Remember that once you have been seen at the Dorset Prosthetics Service you can access our services without needing to be referred again.

If you were seen a long time ago we will ask your GP for an update regarding your medical condition.
