Pediatric Trauma and Fracture Care Center

We are committed to setting the standard in pediatric fracture care.

HSS pediatric orthopedists are experts in treating children's fractures, paying close attention to their growth plates – the areas where bones lengthen. These growth zones are more susceptible to injury than adult bone, especially during activity, so specialized care is crucial to ensure proper bone development continues.

Children love to run, hop, skip, jump, and tumble. With all this activity, there is a good possibility they may take a spill at home, the playground, or the playing field. While many of these may be harmless, if you suspect a fracture, you should obtain prompt medical attention for the child so that the bones can be set for proper healing. Our team of highly skilled pediatric orthopedic trauma and fracture care specialists are dedicated to offering expert care.
