The Women’s Bone & Joint Clinic at Kapiolani Medical Center for Women & Children is dedicated to providing quality care for women with bone and joint issues.

Women have unique needs and are more prone to certain bone and joint conditions, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Women may also experience bone and joint changes during pregnancy and menopause that may require specialized care. The Women's Bone & Joint Clinic provides comprehensive treatment options, education and support tailored to women's specific needs to help women maintain healthy bones and joints throughout their lives.

Kapiolani recognizes that children, adolescents and young adults have unique orthopedic health needs. Orthopedic issues may arise in childhood as the result of illness, injury or a developmental condition. Symptoms may include pain, deformity and disability in the growing child, though sometimes these symptoms only surface later in adulthood. These conditions are best treated by specially trained doctors. Our Kapiolani specialists provide state-of-the-art care, with an emphasis on joint preservation, to young adults experiencing pain or disability due to residual childhood orthopedic conditions. Kapiolani physicians are also available for monthly appointments with patients in Aiea, on Kauai and on the Big Island.

The Kapiolani Sports & Dance Medicine Program is part of our pediatric orthopedic division and provides comprehensive care for the pediatric athlete and dancer. The program offers complete medical care to the active patient, from attention to musculoskeletal injuries and concussions, to consultations regarding nutrition and health maintenance. The goal of our Sports & Dance Medicine Program is to administer therapeutic treatment while facilitating continuance of sports and dance at peak performance.

Arthritis isn’t just an adult’s disease. About 300,000 keiki in the United States are affected by juvenile arthritis. Juvenile arthritis commonly occurs in conjunction with pediatric rheumatic diseases, which are a range of autoimmune and inflammatory conditions that can develop in children ages 16 and younger.

At Kapiolani, our team of pediatric rheumatologists specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of arthritic conditions in children. Most treatments involve a combination of medication, proscribed physical activity, eye care and guidance for healthy eating in order to relieve inflammation, control pain and help patients lead as normal a childhood as possible.

Kapiolani’s spine specialists provide the highest quality care for the spectrum of spinal conditions and scoliosis in children and adolescents. Our team carefully considers the role that growth plays in the progression of scoliosis, as well as the impacts of our treatments on a child and family’s well-being. We are strong advocates for non-operative management of scoliosis, including scoliosis-specific physical therapy, brace treatment, and Mehta casting. When surgery is required, our surgeons utilize the latest techniques in scoliosis correction, including spinal fusion and anterior Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT), a new growth friendly and motion-sparing procedure.
