Orthopaedic Cerebral Palsy Clinic

 

The multidisciplinary clinic team at BC Children’s Orthopaedic Cerebral Palsy (CP) Clinic strives to provide excellent care to children with cerebral palsy and similar neuromotor conditions.


With expertise in assessment, surgical management, and post operative care, the Orthopaedic Cerebral Palsy team is dedicated to providing individualized, family centered treatment for each child.

The Orthopaedic CP team is responsible for the assessment and treatment of your child’s bones and muscles. We will look at how your child moves, assess his or her abilities, and work to prevent and treat deformities of the spine and limbs.
