Pediatric Orthopedics

Specialized care for the unique needs of children

Children’s bodies are constantly undergoing periods of rapid change. Depending on their stage of development, a child’s bone, joint, and muscle structure can be very different from an adult’s. That’s why orthopedic conditions in children -- such as spine deformities and hip disorders -- require specialized care.

Supportive care for pediatric orthopedic patients

A hospital stay can be difficult for children and parents. We dedicate a team of specialists for each patient through the course of their time with us, from the moment of diagnosis to the completion of treatment.
