Children are not just small adults — they cannot always say what is bothering them, they cannot always answer medical questions, and are not always able to be patient and cooperative during a medical examination.

The Institute's pediatric orthopaedists know how to effectively examine and treat children in a manner that puts them at ease. The pediatric orthopaedists at the NSLIJ Orthopaedic Institute are skilled in all areas of pediatric expertise, including rheumatology, orthopaedics and musculoskeletal medicine.

Pediatric orthopaedists at the Institute see rare and complex musculoskeletal conditions, and we treat "everyday" injuries that befall otherwise healthy kids. Advanced techniques are adapted to bring advanced care to child injuries.
