Clinics and Care Centers
The Neurosurgery Clinic at Seattle Children’s has more pediatric neurosurgeons and neurosurgery nurse practitioners than any other hospital in the Pacific Northwest. Each pediatric neurosurgeon is trained in neurosurgery, as well as the unique needs of babies, children and teens, whose bodies and brains are still developing.
Because of our high level of expertise, surgeons at other hospitals around the region call on us for consultations and refer or transfer children to us for care. We also see patients from around the United States. Read more at Seattle Children's.
