Our Philosophies
Patient focused and person outcome centred.
This means we look at more than just the injury. What a farmer and a city slicker need is wildly different, and we know for a fact that the same solution doesn’t work for both.
We custom cast and build Orthoses, right here in Palmerston North, that match the lifestyle of those who need them.
Honest and realistic
g20 Orthotics has a history of being head and shoulders above our peers in the profession. We’re definitely not here to pretend Orthotics is a perfect solution to every situation. By treating every patient with integrity, assessing their needs in the context of their health, life, work and community, we provide solutions with realistic expectations.
We provide real outcomes, for real people, and we're not afraid to admit it when we just can’t help.

Our Capabilities
We treat the patient, not the injury. This means we look at the entire lifestyle of our patients: health status, work needs, mobility difficulties all in the context of their community. We custom build them solutions that fit.
At the patient interface, the team has the expertise to achieve the best outcomes possible.

Education
Thought Leadership
Being a patient-focused and person outcome centred business means we think about the industry in a completely different way. We’re at the forefront of Orthotics, working closely with Medical Practitioners, Hospitals, ACC, Government agencies and patients to continually deliver excellence.
We are interested and involved in educating the wider public of the benefits of Orthotics, training medical practitioners on how Orthotics can help their patients and we aim at being thought leaders for upcoming student Orthotists.
We have a 5 year program for post-graduate Orthotists, involving mentoring, support and encouragement to develop their wisdom in making sound clinical and fabrication decisions for their patients.
