About Us


A Legacy of Compassion, A Future of Motion
At Abilene Artificial Limb & Brace Ltd., we believe that a physical challenge should never define a person’s potential. Since our doors opened in 1981, our mission has been simple yet profound: to restore hope, one step and one person at a time.
Our Roots: A Family’s Promise
Our story began long before our Abilene office was established. It started in 1962 with a family commitment to help those facing limb loss in West Texas. Founded by Kent and Sheila Phillips, our Abilene facility was built on the belief that every patient deserves more than just a medical device—they deserve a partner in their recovery.
Today, led by third-generation owner Jason Phillips, we continue that legacy. We aren’t just a medical provider; we are a family business that treats every individual who walks through our doors as one of our own.
Our Philosophy: The Human Touch in High Tech
We know that the journey to recovery is deeply personal. It can be filled with frustration, but it is also filled with incredible triumphs. That is why we combine the world’s most advanced technology—like microprocessor-controlled limbs and precision carbon-fiber bracing—with a warm, human-centered approach.
We don't just "fit" a brace or a prosthetic; we listen to your dreams of walking again, playing with your grandchildren, or returning to work. Whether we are providing custom spinal bracing, life-changing prosthetic systems, or protective footwear for diabetic care, our goal is to ensure you feel seen, heard, and supported.
