Orthopedic Surgeon - Livonia,MI

My son broke his arm when he was 2. I can't remember the doctor, but I wanted to pass along the suggestion to you that you insist on a fiberglass, "waterproof" cast if she ends up needing one. It will make life sooo much easier.

When I broke my arm, my parents took me to the Orthopedic Surgeon at St. Joes ... I think it's in the Rictart Building ... sorry for the spelling ... they see a lot of kids

My son goes to one at Henry Ford downtown. His name is Dr. Zalts. He has a problem with toe walking. Hope that helps!

I work as an operating room nurse and I know several good ones through Oakwood Hospital, I also think some of them work at Henry Ford. I would choose Dr Douog Plagens, Greg Housner or Matthew Steffes. Dr Stedffes fixed my 3 year old cousin's broken elbow and was wonderful. I have seen the other two myself and think they are great. Their office is in Dearborn and the # is ###-###-####. Good luck

Hi T.,
My 1 year old just fractured his leg and I had a really hard time finding a specialist to take him to. Not a single office could get him for at least 2 weeks. I opted to pay the $75 co-pay that I have for ER visits and took him to Childrens hospital of Detroit where they have an Ortho specialist on call. Dr. Yassir was there to look at my x-rays and I then made an appointment to see him in a few days to get the cast or boot that my son needed. I did need to get a refural from my pcp for that second appointment. They were WONDERFUL at Childrens. Good Luck!! L. B

Dr Sorce (pronounced Sore-say) in Canton made my son and I laugh so much the 1st, painful trip, it ended up feeling like a good time.

Dr. Zaltz or Settecerri through beaumont royal oak. Their office number is ###-###-####

Hi, I am so sorry for your little one. My son has had to see Dr. Wild, twice over the last two years (once a fractured ulna, then a chipped fibula). So, I figured "Wild" would be a good choice for an Ortho Doc. We were wonderfully surprised as he met and exceeded our expectations. He was very patient with our son and took time to listen to his fears. Even though my son was young at the time, Dr. Wild really tried to include him in the discussion. I also liked the fact that everything was there in the office, we needed a few more xrays and we simply had to walk down the hall, and then he was able to look everything over on his laptop.

You should know that they have 4 locations: Plymouth, Canton, Hamburg and Ypsilanti (which is where we went - just in front of St. Joe's ). I really loved Dr. Wild, but we also saw Dr. Holmes at one visit and he was great also! Good luck to you and I hope your little one is up and at 'em again soon.

Hello,

Not sure what your insurance or what 'network' you belong with; but I have seen Dr. Michael Hubers out of Beaumont. He is located in Troy off of Kirts Blvd. Absolutely wonderful~ I saw him for all three knee scopes I had to have and he was just a great doctor throughout them all. (Only reason I had to go back, was we didn't realize until the last one that I had Rheumatoid Arthritis as he only removed the lining in the knee joint for me to see if it would grow back without the issues I was having.

My mother saw him, too for her broken ankle. Wasn't until later that I knew it was him or what happened, but she loves him!

He knows his stuff, he is young; so he is current, but still seems to care. As for kids: I saw a few in when I was in the waiting room. I do not think he is discriminant.

Good Luck!
