Children are NOT simply little adults. What separates pediatric orthopedics from adult orthopedics? Children cannot always say what is bothering them, or answer medical questions, or be patient and cooperative during a medical examination. Pediatric orthopaedic surgeons know how to examine and treat children in a way that helps them to be relaxed and cooperative.
They also appreciate the worry that goes with having a child with a musculoskeletal problem and they have experience in communicating with anxious family members.
