Shriners Children's is one of the largest networks of hospitals, medical centers and outpatient facilities in North America that specialize in pediatric orthopedics.

This gives us a truly unique vantage point when it comes to evaluating and treating pediatric sports injuries with surgery. We treat a wide range of sports injuries, from fractures and broken bones to sprains, strains and injured joints.

The course of care is determined individually for each patient. For patients requiring surgery, our specialists work with athletes, families, coaches and athletic trainers when an injury has occurred to ensure a safe and swift return to play.

Specific treatments and services may vary by location. Please contact a specific location for more information.

At Shriners Children's, we’re familiar with what makes the pediatric athlete different than the adult athlete. We understand what the athlete is experiencing and how we can get them safely back to the sport they love.
