Pediatric surgical services
If your child needs surgery, we want you and your family to feel informed and supported before, during and after the procedure. We offer many pediatric surgical services at our dedicated hospital for children.
Our medical team uses robot-assisted techniques whenever possible. This minimally invasive approach has many potential advantages, such as shorter hospital stays, less post-operative pain, reduction in scarring and a quicker return to daily life. Some of the surgeries our specialists perform include:
- Balloon sinuplasty — This minimally invasive technology is designed to relieve pain and pressure associated with chronic sinus inflammation. Balloon sinuplasty is less invasive than conventional sinus surgery, potentially allowing your child to quickly return to their normal activities.
- Heart surgery — Our pediatric cardiology program is designed to treat various congenital heart conditions, including those affecting blood flow to the lungs.
- Ureteral reimplantation surgery — This surgical treatment is used to address reflux, which occurs when urine from the bladder flows back up into the kidneys.
It is not uncommon for women to experience temporary mood disorders after giving birth. However, if you have been experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety for more than two weeks, or if the symptoms are interfering with your daily activities, it is important to seek help. It is likely that you have postpartum depression, in this case, and our specialists are standing by 24/7 to provide postpartum depression evaluations and support.
Our mental health specialists are available 24/7. To speak to one of our specialists about postpartum depression, please call (801) 268-7438.
If you are unable to care for your newborn, you can give up custody anonymously at any hospital in Utah, including ours, which is a Utah Newborn Safe Haven. Along with Utah Newborn Safe Haven, we are here to help.
