Introduction

Ottobock Care has recently announced the opening of the Peter Harsch Ottobock Care Clinic in San Diego, marking a significant milestone in the field of prosthetic care. This purpose-built facility aims to redefine rehabilitation and support for patients requiring prosthetic and mobility solutions. The clinic, located at 16705 Via Del Campo Ct, Suite 100, San Diego, CA 92127, officially commenced operations in Spring 2026, with a grand opening celebration slated for mid-August 2026. This establishment stands out as the first Ottobock Care clinic designed from the ground up in the United States.

The Vision Behind the Clinic

The new clinic is the result of the legacy of Peter Harsch Prosthetics, joined with Ottobock’s extensive global expertise. This new center is over double the size of the previous location, accommodating advanced fabrication processes, enhanced clinical services, and one of the most technologically advanced rehabilitation gyms in the country. Scott Sabolich, the Senior Director at Ottobock Care, emphasized that this clinic showcases the next phase of prosthetic care, integrating innovative technology and high-level training standards suitable for elite athletes, particularly in light of the upcoming 2028 Paralympic Games.

Patient-Centric Design

Moving beyond traditional single-operation clinics, the Peter Harsch Ottobock Care Clinic provides a vibrant, open training space engineered to foster community and transparency among patients. Key features of the facility include:

• - A fully equipped open gym featuring advanced equipment such as parallel bars, high-speed treadmills for sprint training, and modern strength-building gear.
• - An open-concept fabrication lab with expansive viewing areas, allowing patients to watch the creation of their custom prosthetics in real time.
• - Increased on-site fabrication capabilities facilitating speedy adjustments and device production.
• - Comfortable gathering spaces that promote interaction and encouragement among patients.

Shellie Plasch, the Clinic Director, remarked on their commitment to enhancing patient experience, stating: "A collaborative and open environment aids patients in learning from one another, building community ties, and feeling motivated, whether they aim for gold medals or strive for confidence in daily tasks."

A Hub for Elite Training

Strategically located, the clinic is just minutes away from San Diego International Airport and offers quick access to Los Angeles and the Chula Vista Olympic Training Center. This positioning is intentional, catering specifically to elite athletes preparing for upcoming competitions, such as the LA 2028 Paralympic Games. However, the facility is open to anyone seeking premier prosthetic care, regardless of their athletic aspirations.

Plasch emphasizes the inclusive approach of the clinic: "Every individual's goals are valuable—be it winning a competitive event or simply regaining independence in their everyday life, our doors are open to all."
