Stan Patterson. CP LP

Inventor, Certified Prosthetist and Founder of Prosthetic & Orthotic Associates (POA)
Stan Patterson is a world recognized, American Board Certified Prosthetist, known for his revolutionary strides in prosthetic design. He graduated from the University of North Alabama with a B.S. degree in Education and earned his certification in prosthetics from the American Board for Certification in 1994. Since 1997, Patterson has founded and managed several prosthetic patient care facilities. In 1999, he founded Prosthetic & Orthotic Associates (POA) of Central Florida, an industry leader and innovator in the custom fabrication of high-performance prosthetic products. He has since opened patient fitting facilities in Southern California, Louisiana, and, most recently, Hawaii.

Patterson is a highly sought-after and respected speaker at national prosthetic and orthotic conferences, and has served as an adjunct professor for Otto Bock Healthcare and TEC Interface Systems. He was honored by the American Academy of Orthotists and Prosthetists as the recipient of the 2007 Clinical Commitment Award at their 33rd Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California. In July 2012, Patterson was elected, by unanimous consent, to a 3-year term as a member of the Orlando Science Center Board of Trustees.

When Patterson founded POA, his objective was to help as many people as he could, and he vowed to never turn anyone away due to lack of ability to pay. His business model is simple: “Do the right thing and the rest will follow.” For over 20 years, POA has helped countless amputees from all around the U.S. and the world achieve their goals – anything from taking a walk with their grandchildren to running a marathon.
