Patient-centered pediatric rehabilitation medicine
At Mass General Brigham, pediatric physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists care for children with congenital and acquired conditions that affect movement, coordination, learning, speech, and communication.
Experts at Mass General Brigham for Children and Spaulding Rehabilitation work closely with therapists and other specialists to create individualized care plans. From wheelchairs and orthotics to exercises and therapies, we provide customized treatment to address your child’s needs and your family’s goals.
Our approach to pediatric medicine and rehabilitation
Our pediatric rehab specialists coordinate customized care for your child to help you navigate new or ongoing medical challenges.
Medical and therapeutic expertise across childhood
We offer highly specialized care designed to meet the needs and abilities of children at different ages and stages of development. Many of our physicians are trained in both pediatrics and physical medicine and rehabilitation to provide the right combination of medical and therapeutic treatments. We also partner with experts in neurology, orthopedics, and many other specialties to support all your child’s health needs, no matter how complex.
Care across settings and stages
We provide pediatric rehabilitation services in inpatient, outpatient, and community-based settings. Children who need inpatient care receive intensive rehabilitation, while outpatient services focus on building skills and supporting participation at home, school, and in the community.
Support for children and caregivers
We treat everything from bone fractures to severe neurologic disabilities with personalized care and attention. Whether your child needs an ankle brace or to improve their communication skills, our specialists help them build confidence and meet their full potential. We also empower caregivers with the information and education you need to best support your child’s health journey. Our care for children with special needs extends beyond the bedside to leadership in advocacy, education, and research.
