Snells Limbs & Braces

Those five words express a philosophy, a tradition, and a promise.
At Snell's O&P, we believe that the business of providing orthotic and prosthetic care and products to clients can never be regarded as a simple job assignment of supply and demand. While science, technology, and mathematical precision figure largely in the services we provide, the heart of our work is based on humanity rather than science. We believe that the art of understanding inner needs and private dreams is as vital to success as the mechanics of providing tangible tools of enablement to our clients.
We are privileged to receive the trust of people whose lives may be dramatically changed by our efforts; we do not take that trust lightly. For nearly a century, this philosophy has driven us to stress quality in every aspect of our care and service to our Louisiana area patients:

Richard Colvin, CP has recently joined the professional staff at Snells Orthotics Prosthetics. Colvin, a Monroe area native, is a certified prosthetist and brings 10 years of experience to the practice.

I encounter a lot of patients who are just out of surgery and are generally very depressed that they had to undergo an amputation. One part of my job that is very rewarding is when I show them what is available with todays technology and demonstrate how they can get back to their activities of daily living. But, the best part is when I see the patients face light up when they get their prosthesis and see that they really can get back to being mobile, productive and self-reliant again, commented Colvin.
