Pediatric & Adolescent Specialists

From growing pains to playground injuries, children have unique needs when it comes to orthopaedic care.

Few things, if any, are as important as the health and happiness of your child. You can trust that the pediatric orthopaedic specialists at KOC understand the particular demands of treating children and that they are committed to tending, with tender and experienced hands, to the many complexities of your child’s bone and joint problems.

Unlike many of the other specialties at KOC, pediatric orthopaedics does not focus on one area of the body, but on the many complexities of bone and joint problems in the growing child. Dr. Robert Madigan, Dr. Cameron Sears, Dr. Amber Luhn and Dr. Jay Crawford are Fellowship-trained and specialize in Pediatric and Adolescent Orthopaedics. They treat a variety of orthopaedic conditions including congenital problems (e.g., clubfoot and spina bifida), problems that arise later in childhood such as scoliosis or growth abnormalities, and the common injuries that happen anywhere from the playground to the soccer field. They understand the unique differences involved in treating children and their parents.
