Brittany K. Tilden, C.P.O.
Prosthetist/Orthotist
Brittany is a board-certified prosthetist and orthotist through the American Board for Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics & Pedorthics (ABC). Originally from Bend, Oregon, she moved to Idaho in 2008 to attend Boise State University, where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Biomedical Engineering. She later completed her Master of Prosthetics and Orthotics at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center before returning to Idaho to build her career and raise a family with her husband.
Since joining APO in 2019, Brittany has served as Clinical Manager and brings more than 13 years of experience in prosthetic and orthotic care. She specializes in advanced and complex lower-extremity amputee rehabilitation, with a strong focus on biomechanics, gait analysis, and optimizing functional outcomes collaborating closely with Physical Therapists. Known for her patient-centered approach, Brittany is passionate about helping individuals build confidence, regain independence, and achieve goals they may have once thought impossible.
Brittany has earned a reputation for helping amputees return to high levels of activity, including running, hunting, fishing, rowing, cycling, horseback riding, rock climbing, and swimming. She is particularly passionate about adaptive recreation and works closely with the Challenged Athletes Foundation to help patients access specialized prostheses and opportunities that expand their potential beyond everyday mobility.
Outside the clinic, Brittany enjoys spending time with her husband and daughter on their farm. An avid equestrian, hunter/jumper trainer, and lifelong horse enthusiast, she can often be found riding, training, or caring for horses when she is not serving her patients. Her commitment to performance, resilience, and personal growth extends beyond her profession and reflects the same values she strives to instill in every patient she serves.
