About Columbia Orthopedics / NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital
Columbia Orthopedics treats paediatric limb deformity at NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, 3959 Broadway in New York, within Columbia University Irving Medical Center. Joshua E. Hyman, MD, the St. Giles Foundation Professor of Orthopedic Surgery, is tagged by Castle Connolly for the Ilizarov procedure, and Katherine A. Rosenwasser, MD, Chief of Pediatric Orthopedic Trauma, completed limb lengthening and reconstruction training at the Rubin Institute in Baltimore. Ilizarov is the recorded method.
There is no branded limb lengthening service here. The capability is documented only on individual surgeon profiles and one hospital article, which emphasises guided growth, so expect a paediatric reconstructive practice rather than a lengthening centre. Dr Hyman holds a consultation-only satellite office in Englewood, New Jersey; surgery is in New York. Care is offered in English and Spanish. Price, international patient services and review data are not published.
