Violet Bloom is an ABC-certified prosthetist/orthotist for Hanger Clinic in Kissimmee, Florida.

As a clinician, Violet specializes in geriatric healthcare, working closely with our older patients and their loved ones to develop prosthetics and orthotics that allow them to achieve their goals and maintain independence. She has extensive experience working with seniors in rural and under-served populations, both with making artificial limbs, and diabetic wound care and amputation prevention.

Violet values a collaborative and patient-centered approach to rehabilitative medicine. She enjoys working closely with the patient and their physicians, therapists, family members, and caregivers to develop a customized care plan for each patient.

Outside of work, Violet spends her time volunteering with local adaptive sports organizations, playing with her dog, reading, and cooking.
