About Our Pediatric Surgery Program
Children and their families can conveniently access
a Children’s National Medical Center pediatric surgeon at Holy

Our surgeons are supported by fellowship-trained pediatric
anesthesiologists and pediatric radiologists, and work closely with
our nurses and our child life specialist to ensure that before, during
and after surgery, the unique needs of your child are being met.
