Our goal is to provide youth athletes with comprehensive care and services for sports-related injuries and conditions that affect athletic participation in a comfortable age appropriate atmosphere
There is a saying in pediatrics that "Children are not just small adults." This statement is especially true when caring for athletic injuries that occur in the child and adolescent.
In growing children, injuries and medical problems in the muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones and joints often are quite different from conditions more commonly seen in older patients.
Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure in which an arthroscope is inserted into a joint. The benefits of arthroscopy involve smaller incisions, faster healing, a more rapid recovery, and less scarring.
Children and adolescents are very active individuals and during free play and or sports may sustain an injury. A fracture is a soft tissue injury accompanied by a break or crack in the underlying bone. Many fractures are treated by simple immobilization. Some may require more advanced care.
