Pediatric Orthopedics Expertise You Can Trust

Specialized Services for Growing Bodies

At Orthopedic + Fracture Specialists, we understand how children’s bones, muscles, and joints differ from adults. That's why we've built a specialized team of pediatric orthopedic doctors, surgeons, and physical associates to deliver individualized care tailored to young, growing bodies.

Here are the highlights of our pediatric orthopedic program:

  • Treatment of Fractures and Injuries: Whether it’s a broken arm from the playground or a sports-related knee injury, our team rapidly diagnoses and treats fractures, sprains, and other injuries. We use child-friendly approaches to minimize discomfort while maximizing recovery.
  • Corrective Surgery for Congenital Conditions: We address congenital conditions like clubfoot, scoliosis, or hip dysplasia with the highest level of care. Our pediatric orthopedic surgeons use advanced techniques to correct these conditions early, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
  • Growth Plate Injuries: Because children’s bones are still developing, growth plate injuries require meticulous care. Our specialists are well-versed in addressing these delicate areas, helping to prevent future complications.
  • Sports Medicine for Young Athletes: Many kids today lead active lives, participating in sports that push their limits. We focus on both injury prevention and post-injury care, ensuring young athletes regain their strength and confidence.
  • Physical Therapy Tailored to Kids: Pediatric rehabilitation is vital for long-term recovery. Our team of physical therapists works closely with children to create customized therapy plans that make rehabilitation as effective and enjoyable as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions does a pediatric orthopedic specialist treat?

Our specialists treat a wide range of conditions affecting the bones, joints, and muscles of children. From fractures and growth plate injuries to scoliosis, congenital disorders (like clubfoot), and sports injuries, we offer comprehensive diagnostic and treatment plans tailored to children at every stage of development.

How is pediatric orthopedic surgery different from adult procedures?

Pediatric orthopedic surgery requires special techniques to address the unique anatomy and growth patterns of children. For example, growth plates in children’s bones make surgery a more delicate process. Our surgeons are highly experienced in these specialized procedures, ensuring the best outcomes for young patients.

Do you offer non-surgical treatments?

Absolutely. Surgery is always our last resort. Many conditions, such as mild scoliosis or certain fractures, can often be treated with physical therapy, braces, or other non-surgical methods. Our focus is always on the least invasive and most effective approach for your child.
