The term “ortho” means to correct or straighten. At Nemours, our pediatric orthopedic teams recognize and treat neuromuscular and musculoskeletal conditions as early in your child’s life as possible. We’re here to help restore function and improve kids’ quality of life.

Since 1940, Nemours has been setting the standards for orthopedic procedures for children who were either born with bone, joint, muscular, and nerve conditions, or who develop these conditions because of disease or injury.

We welcome all kids with orthopedic problems — from skeletal dysplasia to bone tumors, limb length problems to scoliosis, spinal dysfunction to sports injuries — regardless of how simple or complex their condition (and their care) might be. Our goal is always to improve children’s quality of life — and help kids be kids, no matter what medical condition they’re dealing with.

Whatever pediatric orthopedic condition or injury your child might have, know that we offer comprehensive, compassionate care — and treat every child as we would our own.
