The Orthopaedic Units

 

Nineteen of the 22 Shriners Hospitals are orthopaedic units, treating children with problems of the bones, joints and muscles.

Located throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico, the orthopaedic Shriners Hospitals offer expert, state-of-the-art medical care to children with orthopaedic deformities, diseases or injuries, such as clubfoot, scoliosis, and the orthopaedic problems caused by cerebral palsy. In addition, some of the units treat patients with "healed" burns, who need reconstructive or plastic surgery, or rehabilitation.
