NURSES The Department of Pediatric Surgery also consists of a team of nurses who work together to provide support to the physicians and a contact for the family. They are specially trained in pediatric surgery and—once your child has been established as a patient—can answer your routine questions related to follow-up care, home care after surgery, prescriptions your child has been given, problems that may arise, and many others. They assist the physicians in most procedures and receive on-going training to continue to provide excellent support. OFFICE STAFF
