Is it important to see a Pediatric Orthopedist vs a General Orthopedist if my child has Hip Dysplasia?
It’s usually better to see a pediatric orthopedist. General orthopedists are trained to treat musculoskeletal disorders involving bone, joint and muscle but they may not have a lot of experience with hip dysplasia. Pediatric orthopedists have special training for musculoskeletal disorders that are seen in children.
