Orthopaedic Care for

Children and Teens

Children and teenagers are not just smaller adults — their bones, joints, and soft tissues are still developing, which means their injuries require different diagnosis and management.

Our orthopaedic clinic provides care for young patients with sports injuries, growth-related conditions, and trauma to the lower limbs. Families across Perth and regional Western Australia seek us for guidance and a calm approach to treatment.

Conditions Treated in Teens and Children

Common orthopaedic injuries and conditions in young patients include:

  • ACL ruptures
  • Patella dislocations and kneecap instability
  • Growth plate injuries and fractures
  • Ankle sprains and instability
  • Joint sprains and soft tissue injuries
  • Knee ligament injuries
  • Muscle and tendon ruptures


These injuries often occur during sports, play, or high-impact activities. Prompt assessment and correct treatment are key to protecting long-term mobility.

Dr. Duff takes an age-appropriate approach to treating young patients, including:

  • Diagnosis using clinical exam and imaging
  • Clear communication with both child and parents
  • Non-surgical and surgical treatment options explained simply
  • Referrals to paediatric physiotherapists where needed
  • Collaborative care with GPs and school sports programs
