The diseases that a pediatric orthopedist helps with and their treatment methods are quite specific and require special experience and training from a specialist. Most of these diseases are associated with the growth and development of the child's body and do not occur in adult patients.

A pediatric orthopedist at the EMC must conduct a routine examination of a child at the age of 1 month in order to detect congenital diseases in a timely manner and treat them. Further, at 3, 6 and 9 months, according to the doctor's prescription, because during this period the baby's body has a particularly heavy load, because children at this age learn to crawl, sit andwalk. Routine preventive examinations by a pediatric orthopedic doctor helps to detect and cure diseases faster and more effectively at an early stage, since in the first year of life the child's musculoskeletal system is the most plastic and capable of recovery.
