We Understand The Special Orthopaedic Needs Of Children

When your tiny loved one needs specialized orthopaedic care, were here. Many of us are parents ourselves, and we know that care for complications or injuries in children can be especially stressful for families. We want to make your experience at South Florida Orthopaedics as relaxing as possible as we work with you to listen, assess and create a treatment plan that will have your child moving with the best function possible.

From the tiniest baby to active teens, we treat both congenital and acquired conditions and combine treatments with physical therapy or other care as needed. If surgery is necessary, we want to make sure you and your child are confident in our skills and educated about each procedure.

Why See A Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon

While Orthopedic Surgeons treat bone and joint conditions, Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons are specially trained to care for the musculoskeletal conditions of infants, children, and adolescents. At Peds Ortho, we specialize in treating all musculoskeletal problems in children. Whether a child has a birth defect, an abnormal walk, back pain, or a broken bone, a Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon has specialized training to understand and address the complex challenges that a growing child presents. Kids are not simply small adults. Accurate and prompt diagnosis is of utmost importance to prevent long term complications that can occur while a child or adolescent grows and develops. Peds Ortho is the only practice in SW FL that has specialized Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons.

Reporter: For pediatric orthopedic surgeons, spine surgery is not a procedure they take lightly.

Dr. Arun Hariharan: Spine surgery is a big deal and we only do it if and when we absolutely have to.

Reporter: From back injuries to spinal deformities, doctors say there are times when children need to have surgery.

Dr. Arun Hariharan: This isnt a life-threatening condition, especially in North America, where we have the resources to take care of it at an early phase.

Reporter: And new technology is making the procedure quicker and more efficient for surgeons.

Dr. Arun Hariharan: Now we have something called intraoperative navigation. Its a CT scanner that goes right over the patient in the operating room and uses a 3D computer system to create a model of the spine and using specific instruments and that computer program, we can tell where we are in the body in real time.

Reporter: The equipment shows surgeons exactly where they are in the body.

Dr. Arun Hariharan: It tells me how far forward the body goes, how big the screws need to be and how rotated the screws need to be, and how rotated or turned each of these pieces are.

Reporter: Giving patients a quicker recovery and a safer outcome.

Dr. Arun Hariharan: We work with the anesthesiologist and therapists and ICU staff to make this a safe and reliable experience for the patients and the families.
