Specialized orthopedic expertise for your child

We offer Mehta casting, thoracic lumbar sacral orthosis (TLSO) bracing, Rigo Chêneau bracing, and Schroth scoliosis-specific exercises physical therapy. For severe cases, we have surgical options that correct scoliosis while maintaining the motion of the spine.

Mayo Clinic Pediatric Orthopedics advantages for treating complex spinal issues

Spinal conditions in children can be complex and require multidisciplinary care. Our team conducts a thorough physical exam, and if surgery is indicated uses surgical navigation, 3D printed model, and low dose imaging (EOS) to ensure high-quality surgical outcomes. For example, Mayo pediatric orthopedic surgeons are experts in complex pediatric cervical spine surgery.

Hip dysplasia can be discovered at a pediatrician visit or diagnosed with ultrasound if a child is born in a breech position. Our team directs nonoperative treatment for infants as well as surgery if needed.

Our team has the expertise to care for these injuries both when they happen and until return to play. Call 507-538-7200 for a consultation.
