Pediatric Orthopedics: A Guide for the Primary Care Physician

Pediatric Orthopedics offers pediatricians a practical guide to the evaluation and management of children with extremity and orthopedic problems. Co-authored by an experienced primary care pediatrician and an orthopedic surgeon, Pediatric Orthopedics has a unique primary care perspective: it is organized in a problem-based, not an anatomically based, manner--reflecting the actual situations that arise in busy primary care practices. This book is ideal for primary care practitioners, including pediatricians, family practitioners, and allied primary care providers. It will also be useful for students involved in any of these disciplines as well as for trainees in orthopedic surgery.
