Department of Orthopaedic Surgery
Pediatrics
Children's orthopaedic problems are quite different than adults. Children are still
developing, and their body's response to injuries and infections differ from what would
happen in adults. In addition, many of the orthopaedic problems of children do not even
occur in adults.
We understand that each child is special, and we care for each accordingly. We also
realize that this is a confusing and worrisome time for the parents and family, and work
collaboratively with them to develop a treatment plan that will be best for the child. We
combine compassionate care with conservative treatment, standard surgical procedures, and
cutting-edge technologies.
Our pediatric orthopaedic surgeon, Dr. Brown, is fellowship-trained and has much expertise
in the diagnosis and treatment of all acquired and congenital pediatric orthopaedic
problems, including:
• Cerebral palsy
• Gait abnormality
• Intoeing
• Juvenile arthritis
• Limb deformity
• Pediatric fractures
• Scoliosis
• Slipped capital femoral epiphysis
