Autumn Tatum is an ABC-certified orthotist and board eligible prosthetist for Hanger Clinic in Ohio Valley.

As a clinician, Autumn sees a variety of patients and specializes in pediatric orthotic bracing for conditions ranging from cerebral palsy to cranial remolding orthoses. She enjoys helping families with infants and reporting on their progress. Pediatric patients are all different and each case presents a new situation and opportunity to think out of the box.

Autumn also enjoys the challenge of orthotic bracing for both adults and pediatric patients, working with new amputees, prosthetic gait troubleshooting, and educating patients about how orthoses or prostheses can help with their day-to-day living. Throughout the course of treatment, Autumn works to create rapport with her patients and their families, ensuring the clinic is an open and welcoming environment.

Outside of work, Autumn enjoys spending time with her husband and two dogs, which often includes working on home renovations. She can usually be found spending time with family, visiting friends and extended family in Michigan, or riding motorcycles.
