The department pays key attention to the treatment of bone fractures, joint dislocations, sports injuries (especially knee, spinal, foot injuries), bone infections. In addition, the priority is the treatment of spinal diseases. The department's doctors get along well with children and strongly support them throughout the entire treatment process. The department's ultramodern infrastructure combined with the professionalism of doctors form a solid base for top-class medical care for young patients. The Chief Physician of the department is Prof. Dr. med. Emeritus Charoen.

The department's specialists have excellent qualifications in the treatment of spinal diseases. A special role is given to the diagnostics and treatment of scoliosis in children of all age categories. Physiotherapy is indicated for all young patients with scoliosis.
