Pediatric Surgery
Specialized Surgical Care Close to Home
The pediatric surgeons at HSHS St. John’s Children’s Hospital specialize in the repair of congenital and acquired conditions in infants, children and adolescents. The faithful, board-certified pediatric surgery team works closely with our other pediatric specialists, pediatric anesthesiologists, nurse practitioners and certified medical assistants.
Our surgeons use minimally invasive, or laparoscopic or thoracoscopic techniques, whenever medically suitable. In most cases, our surgical patients experience shorter lengths of stay in the hospital due to these less invasive procedures.
