Pediatric Orthopedic Program

The region’s only pediatric orthopedic surgeon, Ryan Price, DO, and our team of pediatric physical and occupational therapists know exactly what to look for and work toward the best outcome with a care plan designed specifically for your child – so your kid can get back to being a kid, not a patient.

Serial Casting
Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare offers an innovative treatment for children who have trouble fully flexing or expanding their joints. Serial casting is the process of putting a cast onto and taking it off of a leg every week for a period of several weeks. The goal is to stretch muscles to allow for better movement and range of motion over time. Thanks to Dr. Price and our specially trained pediatric physical therapists, we’re able to offer serial casting at TMH, so families no longer have to travel hundreds of miles away to receive this treatment and care.
