Range of Services
Consultant led service for the management of paediatric hip conditions such as Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH), Perthes, Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (SCFE) and Neuromuscular hip conditions.
Treatment will be tailored to each specific patient, with a range of surgical and conservative options. At all stages, a plan of care involving review of xray and scans will be discussed fully in the clinic with the child, their family and caregivers.
These clinics are for all children with hip concerns, generally from the age of six months.
There are dedicated paediatric hip clinics in the Children and Young Peoples Outpatients Department in RNOH Stanmore, and at the Bolsover Street site. All in-patient stays are in the purpose built William Coxen ward at RNOH Stanmore.
To make a tertiary referral to RNOH you will need to register for an account on EpicCare Link. Please follow the instructions here.
General Practitioners should continue to refer to RNOH using the UK Electronic Referral System (ERS). Please select one of the Paediatric Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeons.
All referrals will be triaged and booked into the appropriate Consultant team clinic.
