The Limb Lengthening Center at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital provides comprehensive care to infants, children and young adults with complex orthopedic disorders of the lower limbs.
We focus on integrated care of patients with various orthopedic conditions of the lower extremities. The physicians in the clinic will recommend surgery only if it is in the best interest of your child.
