Paediatric Orthopaedics (Children’s Orthopaedic Surgery) is the speciality that deals with ailments or problems affecting the musculoskeletal system (bones, joints and related soft tissues – muscles, tendons, ligaments) in children and adolescents.
In the case of children, the overwhelming need is for the child to be cared for as a whole, and therefore it is necessary for CHILDREN’S ORTHOPAEDICS to be considered a complete speciality on its own.
Our understanding of the uniqueness of a growing child makes it necessary that a child is not just treated as a little adult.
Centre for Paediatric Orthopaedics & Disabilities (CPOD) is an institution which is set up to provide high quality, evidence based care for all Orthopaedic problems which affect the growing child.
