“Many women are looking for advice, and each expects a professional fitting when she visits my office. I’ll certainly answer her questions and, when ready, she will receive a personal, professional fitting. I would expect no less.” - Velma

For more than twenty years Velma has been a caring, compassionate friend to women who have had breast surgery. She understands the importance for women in presenting a positive self-image after surgery. In addition, Velma’s technical and professional experience is exemplary. We believe you will find her a valuable resource.

“For a woman, losing a breast is a very traumatic event, just as it is for anyone undergoing any type of limb loss. For women, the “hug factor” is also important. So during the initial free consultation, I take time to sit down with her in a comfortable, discreet setting and discuss all the breast form options and alternatives available.” - Velma

It is the nature of our practice to understand loss, and it’s our business to know what is available in an ever-changing environment.

“When a woman is ready, she’ll find that, fortunately, great strides have been made in ready to wear breast forms. New technologies and techniques even allow for revolutionary custom-made breast forms.”

Bra and breast-form choices include Amoena, TruLife, Nearly Me, and Jodee. Our inventory is vast and most women are fit during their initial visit.

A custom-made breast prosthesis replicates the natural shape and skin tone of the breast. Customization allows your own natural color and shape without surgery, side effects, healing, or scarring.

The custom-made prosthesis is a reasonable, affordable, and non-invasive alternative to breast reconstruction. It is worn externally, made to exactly fit your unique body contours, and creates a more natural looking, skin-color-matched breast form and nipple.

Compression Therapy

JP&O also provides compression lymphedema arm sleeves. Jobst custom-made sleeves offer the best fit and prescribed compression. Jobst & Juzo sleeves are also available in ready-to-fit.

Medicare and most insurance policies provide coverage for breast forms, bras and accessories. JP&O is a Medicare provider and a member of many insurance plans. We will gladly file for benefits.
