Children explore the world with their hands. As young adults, they use their hands to practice and perfect their skills and talents, from the sports field to the orchestra hall. Drawing upon in-depth experience and using advanced technology, our team treats infants, children and adolescents so they can heal and recover.
Treating everything from dislocations and fractures to infections and congenital conditions, our pediatric hand surgery program in Plano and Dallas welcomes hundreds of patients each month for first-time visits, surgical intervention and rehabilitation and therapy.
