Experts in Limb Lengthening and Reconstruction

At the Nemours Children’s International Limb Correction Center (NILCC), we know that limb differences — problems with legs, feet, arms, hands, or hips — can impact a child’s life in many ways. Beyond physical challenges, limb differences can affect emotional, mental, and social well-being and overall development. That’s why we bring together a whole team to care for your child, supporting your family from the start.

Your child is cared for by skilled advanced practice providers, nurses, rehabilitation therapists, child psychologists, social workers, Child Life specialists, and many others who know how to help kids with limb differences heal and grow strong — because every child deserves the freedom to move and play with confidence.
