Pediatric Surgery

When your child is sick or hurt and surgery is the recommended treatment option, you want the best that medicine has to offer, including highly skilled doctors, nurses and surgeons who understand kids and provide compassionate care. Our kid-connected experts are tuned into how children think and feel and know what kids need every step of the way.

What Pediatric Surgical Services Are Available at Banner Children’s?

Banner Children’s is home to some of the most accomplished practitioners and care teams in pediatric medicine. Our pediatric surgeons provide an array of surgical services for children ranging from premature newborns to young adults in their early twenties. Our highly-trained team of surgeons is dedicated to providing the best surgical care possible in a family-friendly environment, from routine outpatient surgeries to more complex inpatient procedures. 

Our surgeons use both minimally invasive surgical procedures and robot-assisted surgery whenever possible. These types of surgeries only require tiny incisions, which means less pain, faster recovery time and a shorter hospital stay—all of which will let your child get home and return to regular activities faster.
