Positive Reviews From Our Patients

The best place to go for prosthetics!! I've tried the other two companies in Cape before and SEMO Prosthetics is the BEST!! Their work and customer service are A+! Horace goes above and beyond to make sure his customers are taken care of. I wish I would have known about this place sooner.

Charles M.

They are so knowledgeable and helpful. They worked hard to provide me with the right insert, size, fit, and workability. The staff is absolutely wonderful and accommodating. I recommend coming to see them for any and all specialty shoe and foot/ankle needs.

Cassandra S.

This office is the most absolute professional and caring staff I have ever met! Feels like home when I enter the door! They were so kind and loving to my daughter and myself! Thank you so much for making our days bright when we leave the office!

Denise and Sophia

I HIGHLY recommend these wonderful people! Hoss and Stephanie treated us like old friends, from the 1st phone call and consultation, to making sure my husband's new prosthesis, that Hoss made, was the perfect fit! Then they customized inserts for both my 11 year old son, and my husband. Both say they help tremendously! No stress involved with our experience here. They take care of you. Try them out!!!

Sarah

I am a below the knee double amputee and have been taken care of by all these wonderful, caring professionals since 2012. The personal care is outstanding and not like a "corporate owned" service that slaps legs on you and sends you on your way. I think I have driven Hoss Hodges and prior to him his father Bill (RIP) nuts because I am pretty fussy. They listened to me and turned my concerns into real solutions. No appointment is short. Time is taken to talk, listen and make the outcome successful. I love these guys. They gave me back my independence. I am so glad you are reaching out to others because you are the best and everyone should know this. Thank you!

Vivian

They are a wonderful staff and I love the way they are willing to help you out. I love all of them!
