Over the week, we evaluate 20-30 children with spinal deformities and provide surgery to 5-10 of these children. Our entire team evaluates all the children together and participates in the operating room - each team member providing important insight into the care of the child.

Common diagnoses include:

• Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
• Early onset scoliosis
• Syndromic scoliosis
• Hyperkyphosis
• Rare syndromes
