Serving children from northeast Florida and southeast Georgia, the facility sits on the banks of the St. Johns River. Forty-six Nemours specialists from Jacksonville were recently named among the Best Doctors in America® 2007-2008.

The promise of a healthy tomorrow

Preventing eye disordersVision screening can be one of the most cost-effective clinical preventive services. Yet many children do not have an eye exam until they are in school, when it may be too late for early diagnosis that can alleviate serious eye problems. Jacksonville’s division of ophthalmology and selected community partners developed an interactive CD designed to train pediatricians in vision screening techniques for children ages birth to five years old. Thousands of these CDs have been sent to all general pediatricians and family practitioners in Florida. Nationally, their program is available via the American Academy of Pediatrics web site.

Pioneering robotic surgery

Nemours’ urologists in Jacksonville are helping to pioneer robotic surgery for children who are often under two years of age. The robot is the assistive device for a laparoscopic procedure that provides 3-D imagery and views at 15-times magnification. The benefits of robotic surgery are smaller incisions, smaller scars, faster healing time and less pain.

The Division of Pediatric Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery and Communication Sciences (ENT)

The ENT Division at the Nemours Children’s Clinic, Jacksonville, evaluates and treats diseases or disorders of the ear, nose and throat, including head, neck and communication problems, as well as pediatric facial plastic surgery. The expertise of fellowship-trained physicians, audiologists and speech pathologists come together in a coordinated approach, allowing for rapid diagnosis and use of the most advanced techniques in the management of these childhood diseases. With all the experts under one roof, the ENT Division serves as both a primary care and regional tertiary care referral source for infants, children and adolescents in northeast Florida, southeast Georgia and beyond.
