The right product. The right fit. The right person.
A prescription, new diagnosis, injury, surgery or recovery need can leave you with many questions. You may be unsure which product is appropriate, whether a custom option is necessary, how a garment or brace should fit, or whether your insurance may help cover the cost.
At Liberty Med, we listen first. Our team reviews the recommendation you received, takes the measurements required for the product, explains the available options and helps you choose an appropriate fit for your body, comfort, daily routine and recovery needs.
Liberty Med does not replace your physician, surgeon, physiotherapist or other healthcare provider. We help you understand product recommendations, access professional fitting support and recognize when you should return to your healthcare professional.

Your fitter takes the measurements required for the relevant garment, brace, breast form or support product.
We explain differences in sizing, material, support level, coverage, closure type and ready-to-wear versus custom products.

For eligible in-store purchases, we can assist with direct billing or provide the detailed receipt required by your plan.
