A child's musculoskeletal system undergoes many changes during the maturation process. Pediatric treatment often differs from what General Orthopedists would suggest for adults.
Pediatric orthopedists have a greater knowledge of growing bones and the complex issues that occur early in a child's development. We provide both surgical and non-surgical procedures for the following issues: clubfoot, hip disorders, scoliosis, trauma/fractures, knee problems, as well as hand, foot and shoulder injuries.
We specialize in sports medicine and have state of the art treatment for small children and adolescents with athletic injuries.
