For providers at Rocky Mountain Pediatric OrthoONE, getting kids back to healthy, active living isn’t just a day job, it’s their life’s calling. Because physical activity is so important for kids, these highly skilled, compassionate specialists have dedicated their careers to becoming experts in treating any orthopedic condition that could hinder a child’s physical activity—and the best ways to treat these conditions in children.

“It’s an important specialty to make sure that you’re treating kids appropriately in the world of orthopedics versus sending them to adult providers,” says Dr. Rachel Brewer, pediatric sports medicine physician. “We all have spent a lot of time and energy in our training to get to a place where we feel like Rocky Mountain Pediatric OrthoONE is the best group out there to treat your child.”

Numerous orthopedic conditions can sideline children—everything from congenital abnormalities and joint problems to sports injuries. The team at Rocky Mountain Pediatric OrthoONE is the best of the best, working collaboratively with each other, patients’ primary care physicians and other experts, such as physical therapists, to create individualized treatment plans that fit each child’s unique needs. Most often the team provides treatment for:

●  Scoliosis and spine Alongside the practice’s board-certified surgeons are energetic, fun office staff members who are equally as passionate about providing patient-first care tailored especially for the unique needs of children, adolescents and teens. “We all have personal connections to this field that inspired us to go into pediatric orthopedics or sports medicine,” Dr. Brewer says. As a child, Dr. Brewer was involved in several sports, including running cross-country in high school. During the running season, she developed a stress fracture that ended up sparking an interest in sports medicine. “I didn’t have a lot of guidance and support in terms of injury recovery,” Dr. Brewer says. “It put me in a place where I was motivated to figure out how to make that problem better for other people.”
