What is a Certified Mastectomy Fitter?
Certified Mastectomy Fitters are specialized health professionals dedicated to enhancing the well-being of post-breast surgery patients. With expertise in assessing, planning, and implementing personalized treatment, Mastectomy Fitters ensure proper fitting and adjustment of external breast prostheses, partial breast prostheses (aka shapers), bras, and related supplies. They uphold patient welfare and professional integrity, playing a vital role in the physical and emotional recovery of individuals by providing essential instruction and support.
Becoming certified means you have made a commitment to one of the National Boards: ABCOP (American Board for Certification in Orthotics and Prosthetics) or BOC (Board of Certification/Accreditation)
How do I begin?
Taking the board approved, Introductory Fit Course (pre-certification course) is the very first step to beginning your career as a Certified Mastectomy Fitter. The course is a pre-certification course that provides comprehensive instruction, and practical, hands-on fitting experience. You will master key fitting techniques, preparing you for the ABCOP or BOC certification exams.
This training covers everything you need to know to become a skilled mastectomy fitter—from basic anatomy and post-surgery care to professional ethics and regulations. You’ll learn how to assess patients, create care plans, and fit products accurately, while working closely with other healthcare providers.
