Helping athletes and active people move faster, sooner.
Jessica Schaefer
Helping people return to the lives they want to live drives me every day.
For more than 20 years, I’ve worked with patients of all ages and abilities, building strong relationships and taking a collaborative approach to help them reach their personal goals. I specialize in activity-driven prostheses that support a return to work, play, and independence. From getting dressed to running with the bulls, no goal is too small or too bold.
My experience includes myoelectrics, microprocessors, adjustable sockets, upper and lower extremity care, and pediatric orthotics, including cranial remolding orthoses and ambulatory devices. As a mother of three, I understand how important timely, coordinated care is for families.
Educated at St. Ambrose University and Northwestern University, I’ve proudly served the Quad Cities and Greater Iowa community throughout my career. What drew me to Limb Lab was artistry, combining creativity and clinical expertise to create devices people feel truly feel confident wearing. My goal is simple: that every person feels heard, valued, and empowered to achieve what’s possible.
Every detail matters, from the first fitting to the final finish.
We do the insurance legwork.
Coverage depends on your specific plan and the device you’re prescribed. Our medical coordinators handle the insurance details, and when a device takes extra effort to get approved, we advocate for you. Sometimes insurance companies ask for additional information for approval; if so, we’ll be in touch with you and walk you through what’s needed.
-
Coverage isn’t a simple yes or no. It depends on your plan, your prescription, and your insurer’s criteria. Share your insurance information when you request an appointment, and our medical coordinators will review your benefits with you. We also work with workers’ compensation and self-pay patients.
-
That depends on your plan’s coverage and deductible. Our coordinators will walk you through expected costs before your device is made, so there are no surprises
-
Most plans require a prescription from your doctor before a device can be covered. If you don’t have one yet, call us and we’ll help you figure out next steps.
