Pediatric Rehabilitation Medicine

On this page

Our pediatric rehabilitation medicine team are the first board-certified rehabilitation medicine specialists at MUSC Children's Health and one of the few in the tri-state area. We specialize in caring for children with a variety of issues that can lead to developmental and functional disabilities. The multidisciplinary team approach allows us to work closely with MUSC Children’s Health genetics, neuroscience, oncology, orthopaedics, and pain management specialists.

Each child’s needs differ and require personalized comprehensive plans that we create with the family, as part of the care team, so that everyone understands their contribution and benchmarks.
