WIMBA offers a wide range of orthotics and prosthetics for pets but does not sell them directly to individual customers. Since WIMBA products are classified as medical devices, they require a professional diagnosis and tailored fitting to ensure the best possible outcome for the pet. This means only a qualified veterinarian, after assessing the pet’s condition and confirming that an orthotic or prosthetic is appropriate, can place an order for these devices on your behalf.

How to Order WIMBA Devices

To order a WIMBA device, the first step is to locate your veterinarian on the WIMBA Provider Map.

WIMBA Provider Map displays all the veterinary clinics partnered with WIMBA, referred to as WIMBA Providers. On the map, you can select your veterinarian or choose any clinic located nearest to your home. Why is selecting a provider important? Because the clinic you choose will be our point of contact regarding your order and collaboration, ensuring smooth communication and coordination. 

Check our map of providers to see all the details about the selected veterinarian. Schedule an appointment with this clinic, where your beloved pet will be examined, and the veterinarian will determine which WIMBA device is suitable and order the product for you.

If you can’t find your vet on the map, you can either find another nearby provider or contact us, and we can assist your vet in becoming a WIMBA Provider. A WIMBA representative will get in touch with shortly. However, please keep in mind that this guidance is preliminary, and you will still need to take your pet to one of the veterinary professionals on the WIMBA Provider Map for a thorough examination.

Wimba Provider Map is a regularly updated map that shows the locations of all our certified providers, allowing you to easily find certified professionals near you and stay informed about new additions to our network.
Explore the WIMBA Provider Map on the „Contact us” page to find your nearest WIMBA Provider.

3. Schedule an Appointment With the WIMBA Provider 

To schedule a WIMBA appointment, simply contact a chosen veterinarian, who is a WIMBA Provider, just as you would for a regular visit, indicating the reason for your appointment. The veterinarian will prepare everything necessary for the consultation.

Please ensure you prepare your pet’s medical documentation for the upcoming visit. Having this information readily available will help the veterinarian provide the best possible care for your furry friend. This initial assessment is crucial for determining the best solution for enhancing your pet’s mobility and comfort.

During your visit:

  • For WIMBA Go, your WIMBA Provider simply takes two clear photos and a few measurements, and our team takes care of the rest.
  • For WIMBA Pro: Your WIMBA Provider uses a smartphone, calibration mat, and WIMBA Autodolly (a smartphone holder) to capture a precise WimbaSCAN – 3D scan of your pet’s affected limb. This scan allows the veterinarian to gather precise measurements and create a customized fitting for your pet, ensuring that the WIMBA device is tailored to their specific needs.

4. Receiving Your WIMBA Device and Fitting Process

After receiving all the necessary information from the WIMBA Provider, we create WIMBA devices perfectly tailored to your pet using advanced 3D printing technology, artificial intelligence, and biomechanical engineering. You can read more about our technology to understand the innovative processes behind our products. 

Once the WIMBA device is completed, it is sent to the WIMBA Provider, where you can schedule an appointment for fitting. During this appointment, the WIMBA device will be properly adjusted to ensure optimal comfort and functionality for your pet.
