Will my child need surgery when visiting the Upper Extremity Clinic?

Our providers will thoroughly evaluate your child and determine if surgery is recommended. Whenever possible, we aim to utilize all appropriate non-operative treatments before proceeding to surgery. When surgery is recommended, both our surgeons and our anesthesia team have additional training in pediatric care to optimize your child’s experience and outcome.
