Welcome

The Division of Pediatric General Surgery at Duke Children's provides expert surgical assistance for the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of general and thoracic surgical disorders for children of all ages. We perform approximately 1,300 general and thoracic surgical procedures each year.

 

Our surgical team consists of two pediatric general surgeons and an advanced practice nurse skilled in the surgical and postoperative care of premature babies, neonates, children and adolescents up to the age of 19 years. We have a busy and patient-friendly day surgery program.
