About Precision Splinting & Casting
Expert Training Services
My name is Heather Forrer, and I am a Registered Orthopedic Technologist. I am an independent contractor and a casting instructor with The American Society of Orthopedics. I am also head of the cast room at Lancaster Orthopedic Group. I founded Precision Splinting & Casting to share my expertise and passion for the art of splinting and casting. I believe hands-on workshops are one of the most effective ways to learn, offering healthcare professionals the opportunity to refine their skills and elevate the level of care they provide. At the heart of my mission is a simple belief: every patient deserves exceptional, consistent, and compassionate care every single time.
