Keeping Children Safe
Each year, our team performs more than 100 spinal surgeries including anterior fusion, posterior fusion, spine stapling and VEPTR procedures. And in 2014, our post-surgical infection rate was less than 1%, one of the lowest rates in the country.
Research
Our surgeons also participate in national research initiatives – like the Chest Wall and Spine Deformity study group – to find better ways to care for children with spinal conditions.
