Orthotics-Prosthetics department
The Orthotics-Prosthetics department and Moira Tobin Wickes Orthotics Program offers unique and comprehensive orthotic and prosthetic care that is innovative and personalized for both family and child. Care is specialized to meet the needs of your child.
The best concept to describe the department at Children's Memorial Hospital is a team approach. We work closely with multiple departments (such as orthopaedics, plastic surgery, neurosurgery, neurology, rheumatology, anesthesiology, physical/occupational therapy and other rehabilitation services). Additionally, our department cooperates with community physicians for care of their patients.
We are ideally located and share the same floor as orthopaedics, neurology, and neurosurgery. In addition to working with the programs above, we also cooperate closely physical therapy, occupational therapy and the motion analysis center. Our convenient location allows us to better coordinate care for families and serve your child better.
