Peter B. Salamon

Philosophy of Care

I treat children's orthopaedic problems, a practice that encompasses problems with the hips, lower and upper extremities. I make myself available for any pediatric orthopaedic patient and take great pride in the personal attention I offer the patients who are under my care. I am using the Ponseti method in treating club feet with great success.
