The Challenge before LutraCAD

Before adopting LutraCAD, Shropshire Physiotherapy used a different CAD system for its orthotic products. According to Scott, he was the only one in the clinic who could effectively work with the old system—his staff found it too complex and difficult to use. This lack of usability created inefficiencies, making the workflow time-consuming and limiting productivity across the team.

"We couldn't be happier with the support we've had from Jordy and Niels. LutraCAD is a great product that has transformed how we work."

The Transformation

To overcome these challenges, the clinic switched to LutraCAD, aiming to streamline its design process and improve product quality. Thanks to LutraCAD's intuitive and user-friendly interface, the transition was smooth, and the team was able to adopt the software quickly.

Although exact time savings vary, the clinic reports a significantly faster design process with LutraCAD, enabling quicker turnarounds without compromising on quality. The orthotics produced are not only delivered more efficiently, but they also yield better outcomes—boosting confidence in the care provided.
