My family will travel to US in August and my son (2 years old) has bowed legs. I want him to be examined by a pediatric orthopedic. Is it possible to a foreigner to get appointment from your hospital? If yes, can you please guide me to have an app.?

Yes, but you will need to set up an appointment immediately as it can take up to 6 months for a new consult sometimes. I am sure they might be able to make accommodations since you are from out of the country and well be here in August but I wouldn't hesitate in getting that set up. You would need to call the clinic office for orthopedics and they can set everything up for you. A couple of orthopedic doctors are Dr. Robert Campbell and Dr. Patrick Cahill. I would say call Cahill's office as Campbell is close to retirement. My daughter has been there twice in the past 6 months for orthopedic surgery so let me know if you have any other questions. They also have a hospitality organization that can help you with planning everything you need for your stay that is extremely helpful!

You should call them and set up an appointment. Also ask for a patient advocate. See if they can srt you up at the Ronald McDonald House foe the time you are there and if there are no rooms available then they can get you discount at hotels close by. They have all sorts of help you can get. Just ask the right people.
