Follow on Google News | Pediatric Orthopedics of Southwest Florida opens Naples locationPediatric Orthopedics of Southwest Florida, the Fort Myers-based medical practice specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of infants, children, adolescents and young adults with orthopedic conditions, is opening a second office in Naples.
By: Briggs & Rogers As the only orthopedic practice in the Southwest Florida region specializing in the treatment of children, Doctors Brett Shannon, John Churchill and Matthew Wagner are uniquely trained to deal with musculoskeletal deformities and injuries like broken bones and joint, ligament, tendon and muscle problems in developing children. They also specialize in sports medicine, as well as congenital and developmental conditions such as scoliosis, limb deformity and spina bifida. “We believe in patient-centered care and our goal is to help the child get back to life as normal as soon as possible,” says Dr. Shannon. “The Naples location will reduce the need for children and their families to travel for specialized medical care, which means less down time from school and sporting activities.” Treating injuries in children differs from adults because bones and muscles are often still growing and developing, requiring special care. Peds Ortho also employs physician assistants and physical therapists specializing in children’s treatment, and offers a weekly Sports Clinic for young athletes on Monday evenings in Fort Myers. Shannon and his partner, Churchill, are board certified in pediatric orthopedic surgery, and Wagner is board eligible. About Pediatric Orthopedics of Southwest Florida Since 1992, the physicians and medical professionals at Pediatric Orthopedics of Southwest Florida, or Peds Ortho, have specialized in the treatment of bone and muscle injuries and disorders in children and young adults.
