We tailor our care plans to meet the unique needs of each child. Our team includes pediatric orthopedic surgeons and nonsurgical orthopedic physicians.

Our experienced physician assistants work with patients to prevent or delay surgery when possible. Just 1 in 20 children evaluated in our office by a pediatric orthopedic surgeon requires surgery. Should surgery be needed, our pediatric orthopedic surgeons work closely with Norton Children’s pediatric anesthesiologists and operating room staff to provide care that is designed “Just for Kids.”

Children with musculoskeletal conditions may require care from several specialties at the same time. Our physicians participate in multidisciplinary clinics to provide specialty orthopedic care as part of a child’s comprehensive treatment plan. Multidisciplinary clinics are focused on treating conditions such as spina bifida, metabolic bone diseases, spasticity, cerebral palsy and more.
