Caring for all aspects of your child’s health
It takes more than surgery for children to overcome a damaged or diseased nerve. After a nerve is injured, children often have to train their muscles to move in the right way. Our team includes rehabilitation specialists, occupational therapists and other experts who can help your child get back to full use of their body after surgery. In fact, rehabilitation and exercise are so important that our team stays involved in your child’s care for years, to help them meet any challenges they might encounter as they grow.
Coordinating care for your convenience
Our team of experts, including specialists in pediatric rehabilitation medicine, hand and peripheral nerve surgery, and pediatric hand and occupational therapy, sees patients together during a single clinic visit. This allows us to give you the maximum level of expertise in a convenient and patient-centered setting.
State-of-the-art nerve surgeries
Our surgeons are skilled in state-of-the-art techniques like nerve transfer reconstruction. This type of surgery is necessary when a nerve is damaged far away from the muscle it connects to.
Muscles can suffer permanent damage if they go without that signal for too long, so we speed up the process with nerve transfer reconstruction. Our surgeons borrow a healthy nerve from the surrounding area and connect it to the muscle that needs it. This gives your child the best chance at regaining their movement.
