Rochester General Hospital
Pediatric Surgery
Children often require a special approach to surgery – whether it is a specific surgical procedure or simply a gentle and reassuring demeanor of the surgical staff. Regardless of the surgery, our pediatric surgeons always take special care to make children feel as comfortable as possible before, during and after their procedures. Get acquainted with our kid-friendly surgical facilities.
