The Pediatric Surgery Team
The pediatric general surgeons on the Riley staff have contributed to the field of pediatric surgery on a national and international basis. Contributions have been made in areas of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), minimally invasive chest reconstruction (Nuss procedure), pediatric trauma, and pediatric oncology. In total, over 900 journal articles and book chapters have been published in the contemporary literature of pediatric surgery. This expertise is then carried over to the care of all patients, neonates, infants, children and adolescents alike. Together with a support staff of enterostomal therapists, clinical nurse specialists and care coordinators, state-of-the-art care will be offered your child.
