Treatments and Services
Reconstruction
At Children’s, we provide reconstructive surgery, restoring function and appearance to a part of the body. It also helps correct deformities that result from trauma, birth defects or medical conditions, such as cancer. Reconstruction is generally considered medically necessary, so most insurance plans cover it.
