The Gillette Approach to Perthes
The Gillette care team is focused on the patient and family. Our approach to Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease care is interdisciplinary, offering not only orthopedic care but meeting the other physical, psychological, and functional needs of the patient and family, as well. We base our care on the available evidence in the literature and on our extensive experience with this condition. A new Perthes diagnosis can be an overwhelming time for a patient and family – our care team is ready to answer questions and support you through this process.
