Pediatric and Adolescent Orthopedic Specialists
Your musculoskeletal system — which is comprised of 206 bones connected by joints, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves — protects your internal organs, supports your weight, and allows you to move. It’s a complex, interdependent system where even a minor disruption can result in discomfort and physical limitation.
Our orthopedic surgeons are trained to diagnose and treat any injury, deformity, or disease that interrupts this system.
General orthopedics covers all kinds of common and complex conditions affecting a child’s musculoskeletal health, from birth through development. Because pediatric patients are still maturing, their treatment needs often differ from those for adults. Pediatric orthopedists have special expertise in growing bones and joints, and provide both nonsurgical and surgical care to children and adolescents with sprains and strains, fractures and dislocations, cartilage and ligament tears, bursitis and tendonitis, congenital defects and abnormalities, bone and soft tissue tumors, and much more.
The Orthopedic Center also offers services specializing in the following areas:
- Sports Medicine
- Scoliosis
- Spine abnormality
- Trauma and deformities
- Clubfoot
- Complex hip disorders
- Sprains and strains
- Fractures and dislocations
- Cartilage and ligament tears
- Bursitis and tendonitis
- Congenital defects and abnormalities
- Bone and soft tissue tumors
The Patients' Choice honor is given as a reflection of patients' continued appreciation and praise for the
quality of care and service provided.
