For more than a decade, Peter Harsch Prosthetics (PHP) has been known for redefining what a prosthetic clinic can be. Patients traveled from across the country — and the world — to experience its signature open gym, its energetic community culture, and its deeply personalized approach to prosthetic care.

In 2026, that vision evolves again.

Welcome to the new Peter Harsch Ottobock Care clinic — a purpose-built, next-generation prosthetic center designed to support every level of mobility, from new amputees to Paralympic medalists.

Located at 16705 Via Del Campo Ct, Suite 100, San Diego, CA 92127, the clinic opened its doors this spring, with a grand opening celebration planned for mid-August 2026. This facility represents the first Ottobock Care clinic built entirely from the ground up in the United States. Drawing from the legacy of Peter Harsch Prosthetics and the technical expertise of Ottobock, the new space was created to be a true destination — a place where patients experience world-class prosthetic design, training, and community under one roof.

PHP's continued expansion sparked the need for a larger space. The team has grown from one clinician to a staff of four, and the clinic now serves more high-activity users, wounded veterans, and upper-limb patients than ever before.

The new building more than doubles the size of the original clinic and includes:

The heart of the clinic is its brand-new, glass-walled lab — a bright, open workspace where technicians sculpt, modify, and build devices in full view of the gym.

Patients can now see the craftsmanship behind their prosthesis, witnessing the blend of art, engineering, and biomechanics that goes into every build. This transparency isn't just visually striking; it creates:

• A deeper patient understanding of their device

• More efficient same-day changes

• A shared sense of pride in the work

The training area is the emotional center of the clinic — a lively space where patients cheer each other on, swap stories, learn tips, and find confidence through movement.

Key gym features include:

• Extra-long parallel bars

• A high-speed Saturn treadmill capable of full sprint training, gait analysis, and even cycling

• Strength equipment and cardio stations

• A turf runway and functional training zones

• Gathering areas for community building

Whether someone is preparing for elite competition or mastering the basics of walking, the space is intentionally designed to help people push their limits safely and confidently.

The team emphasizes that this facility is not only for Paralympians. It's for:

• New amputees rebuilding their confidence

• Veterans returning to sport

• High-activity users wanting to run, surf, hike, or cycle

• Weekend warriors

• People simply wanting to move more comfortably in everyday life

As Clinic Director Shellie Plasch put it, "Everyone has a goal. We're here to help people reach theirs — whatever it is."

With the LA 2028 Paralympic Games approaching, the clinic is intentionally located near:

• San Diego International Airport

• The I-5 corridor to Los Angeles

• The Chula Vista Olympic Training Center

These connections — along with collaboration with CAF, Paralympic track coaches, and the local Invictus Games committee — position the clinic as a hub for high-performance prosthetic innovation leading up to 2028 and beyond.

There are more than 2,500 prosthetic clinics in the United States — but very few are equipped with the expertise, equipment, and space needed for Paralympic-level training and cutting-edge prosthetic design.

This facility was built to close that gap.

For patients who want to explore what's possible with advanced prosthetic care, the new Peter Harsch Ottobock Care clinic represents a place where potential meets opportunity — and where community brings it to life.
