The only true fellowship trained pediatric orthopedists in Austin is Central Texas Pediatric Orthopedics and Scoliosis Surgery. The two doctors who have been there the longest are Drs. Shapiro and Williams. (Although a wonderful physician, Dr. Kahn does not treat scoliosis.) They both trained at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital in Dallas. They are excellent physicians who keep up with all the latest research and techniques on scoliosis treatment. They will not do surgery unless they feel it is necessary. There is another physician there, Dr. Michelle Prince, who also deals with scoliosis, but she has not been in practice that long. I used to work there and would trust my children to any of those physicians. The phone number is ###-###-#### and the website is www.ctpomd.com. There are physician profiles on the site. Good luck with your search! As a nurse, if my child had scoliosis, I would only use this practice as they are fellowship trained in pediatric orthopedics and that is all they do. Let me know if you have any other questions that I might be able to help with!
