Your first appointment
Your first visit could take up to 90 minutes or longer. It will include X-rays (if they haven't already been taken) of your child's spine using our lower-radiation EOS machine. Your child then will be evaluated by our health care team. We will review your child's medical history, perform an exam of the muscles, nerves and spine, and look over the X-rays and studies. At that point, we will provide counseling to you and your child regarding your child's spinal condition and partner with you to identify the best treatment plan.
Speak to a nurse
Our nurse triage team is available Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. to assist with appointments and referrals.
