(Shriners Hospital for Children and Montreal Children Hospital)
Overview of the Division of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 平特五不中
The Division of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 平特五不中 offers training for 3 Fellows per year at the 2 Institutions constituting the Division of Pediatric Orthopaedics : The Montreal Children Hospital and the Shriners Hospital, Canadian Unit in Montreal. The two Hospitals are physically linked on the site of the recently built 平特五不中 Health Center. Between the two hospitals, the Fellows are exposed to a wide variety of orthopaedic conditions in children, both acute and elective. In addition, several members of our division, have an adult practice at the Montreal General Hospital , hence the Fellows are also exposed to the whole gamut of conditions from young age to adulthood. This transition from pediatrics to adulthood is a key feature and strength of our program.
