Providence Alaska Children's Hospital - Pediatric Neurosurgery

Providence Alaska Children's Hospital - Pediatric Neurosurgery

Pediatric Neurosurgery focuses on treating conditions affecting children’s brain, spine, head and nervous system. Here at The Children’s Hospital at Providence, we offer inpatient and outpatient consultations to find the best available treatments for your child. Our experienced surgeons and other team members are specially trained in caring for kids. And because we know how frightening it is when your child needs surgery, we offer special care to you, too. You can depend on us to keep you informed and answer all your questions. We will work to help you and your child be comfortable and prepared for surgery, recovery and any ongoing care that may follow. That includes working closely with your child’s primary doctor and any other professionals involved in your child’s care.
