Fractures

FRACTURE CLINIC

Our Fracture Clinic specializes in the diagnosis, management and treatment of new fractures. Fracture is the medical term for a broken bone. Children and teenagers are not just small adults; their growing bones have special needs and require careful attention to avoid potential complications. We are experts in evaluating growing bones and knowing how they will respond to injuries.

  • Copies of reports for above imaging
  • Guardian’s driver’s license or valid ID

Please Note: Even with original images, repeat X-rays may be needed.

  • Thorough explanation of diagnosis, review of imaging and collaborative discussion about treatment plan
  • Treatment options in the Fracture Clinic include casts, splints, braces, fluoroscopy and surgical planning
  • Referral to a physical therapist for follow-up care, when needed
