- Genitourinary conditions
- Intestinal disorders

We specialize in family-centered surgical care for newborns, babies and children. Our board certified surgeons and registered nurses are specially trained in pediatrics. Every appointment includes a detailed review of your child's medical history, test results and a thorough physical exam. In some cases, we're able to diagnose conditions for prenatal consultations before surgery is necessary. And for babies and children, we use minimally invasive surgery (MIS) whenever possible. Compared to traditional surgery, the benefits to pediatric MIS include:
- Shorter hospital stay
- Quicker recovery time
- Less pain
- Less need for pain medication
- Less scarring
- Fewer infections & other complications
When it comes to your child's surgery, we're here to make sure you're informed every step of the way, before the procedure and after.

Pediatric Surgery Video (Eight years and older)
In this video, we will show you and your child around the hospital. This will help your family know what to expect on the day of surgery. You will see pictures and videos of the preoperative (before surgery) room, the operating room and recovery (after surgery) area. You will learn about how your child will fall asleep. You will see what it’s like going back to the operating room. We will cover what your child may experience in the recovery area. This video is designed for children eight years and older because it shows what it will be like if your child needs to get an IV before surgery. We hope this video will help answer your child’s questions so they won’t be worried on the day of their surgery.
