Founded by orthopedic surgeon in training Omolola (Lola) Fakunle, HyperReal develops lifelike prosthetic covers using AI-driven design, adaptive software, and 3D printing. The company grew from Fakunle’s experience seeing amputee patients struggle with prosthetic appearance and lengthy fitting processes, and its scan-to-print workflow creates more personalized covers with shorter lead times.
Perry ProstheticsAfter founder Chris Perry lost his right leg in a motorcycle accident, he built Perry Prosthetics around helping others navigate limb loss; today the company provides custom upper- and lower-limb prosthetic care. For over 25 years, its prosthetists have combined patient education and close coordination with healthcare teams with an on-site fabrication laboratory, while its CARE® program and Amputee Empower Hour extend support beyond fitting and delivery.PERRYSBURG, OH

Optimus ProstheticsFounded in Dayton, Optimus Prosthetics provides custom prosthetic solutions for amputees, with care that follows patients from surgery through rehabilitation and beyond. Its Dayton clinic houses the company’s fabrication lab, allowing prosthetists and technicians to adjust sockets and produce 3D-printed check sockets close to the fitting room rather than relying on an outside lab. With clinics in Dayton, Columbus, and Cincinnati, Optimus also builds community through its annual Limbitless Drive amputee golf clinic and tournament.COLUMBUS, OH
