Pediatric Orthopedics – largest, most-comprehensive pediatric program
in the state
The Manning Family Children’s Orthopedic Department is more than
a care provider; we are a dedicated team specializing in fractures, spinal
disorders, sports medicine, pain management, neuromuscular conditions,
and complex hip, limb, and foot deformities for children, adolescents,
and young adults ages 0-22.
Whether addressing a complex condition requiring multiple visits, a treatment
best suited for one of our multidisciplinary clinics with all your providers
seeing you during one visit, or a single visit for reassurance, we’re
committed to being your comprehensive home for orthopedic care. Our mission
is to provide the most advanced, respectful, and complete care for all
orthopedic conditions.
