[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]If your child has an illness, injury, or disease that requires surgery, a pediatric surgeon has the experience and qualifications to treat your child.

Surgical problems seen by pediatric surgeons are often quite different from those commonly seen by adult or general surgeons. Special training in pediatric surgery is important.

Pediatric surgeons know how to examine and treat children in a way that makes them relaxed and cooperative. In addition, pediatric surgeons use equipment and facilities specifically designed for children. Most pediatric surgical offices are arranged and decorated with children in mind. This includes the examination rooms and waiting rooms, which may have toys, videos, and reading materials for children. This helps create a comfortable and nonthreatening environment for your child.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”1005″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1565153564855{border-top-width: 2px !important;border-right-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-left-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 2px !important;padding-right: 2px !important;padding-bottom: 2px !important;padding-left: 2px !important;border-left-color: #000000 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #000000 !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #000000 !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #000000 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”What Types of Treatments Do Pediatric Surgeons Provide?” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]
