Branch has worn orthoses since he was 15 years old. He started his POP career as a resident but ultimately knew he wanted to be a certified prosthetist orthotist (CPO) and develop meaningful patient relationships like the one he had with his own provider. Influenced by his “cool orthotist,” he quickly became interested in POP and learning how to help individuals like himself continue to do what they love. As a CPO, Branch enjoyed figuring out how things work, building new devices and drawing from his artistic side. Branch now works as a recruiter for a POP clinic and is passionate about introducing new faces to the field he loves.
