With Purpose and Insight

Our goal is to provide quality, attentive, state of the art surgical care for pediatric patients throughout Arizona and the Southwestern region.

We understand that surgery can be a scary experience for families.  On this website we provide information for the families of children having surgery.

We hope this site will help answer questions and provide a source of information for families.
Accessible and Available

We have offices throughout the Valley of the Sun in order to serve our patients. As the oldest pediatric surgery group in Arizona, we have met the needs of children for more than 30 years.

Our surgeons do outpatient surgeries locally at Phoenix Children's Surgery Center, St Joseph's Surgicenter, Gilbert Surgery Center in Gilbert, Piper Surgery Center in Scottsdale, and Banner Estrella Surgery Center in the west valley.
Experienced Professionals

We provide 24 hour, 7 day a week coverage for pediatric surgical cases at Phoenix Children's Hospital, St Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center, and Scottsdale Healthcare-Shea.

We are the largest pediatric surgical practice in Arizona with 10 fellowship-trained pediatric surgeons.

All of the surgeons graduated from medical school in the United States, and trained at top surgical residencies.

Pectus Excavatum and Chest Wall Anomalies Clinic

The Pectus Excavatum and Chest Wall Anomalies Clinic was designed to evaluate, diagnose, educate, and care for patients with chest wall anomalies. Chest wall anomalies are atypical configurations of the chest that result from abnormally growing rib cartilage. These anomalies occur in about 1 in 400 people and can be mildly present at birth and may worsen as a child grows. There are two primary anomalies:

Pectus excavatum - the chest appears sunken, bowing inward

Pectus carinatum - an outward protrusion of the chest

Contact our office at 602-254-5561 to learn more about available treatment options from one of our accomplished pectus surgeons.
