Spotlight on Health - Pediatic Surgery

For expectant mothers, the prospect of having a baby brings excitement and anticipation. While most pregnancies proceed smoothly, occasionally, concerns arise - either for the health of the mother or the development of the baby. Luckily for women in our region, Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center and Sacred Heart Children's Hospital offer moms-to-be and their newborns a wide spectrum of highly-specialized diagnostic and theraputic procedures, along with the Inland Northwests' most modern and state-of-the-art maternity center and neonatal intensive care unit; everything on one site, and in one location.

This second segement of 'Spotlight on Health' takes a look at what happens when your newborn or toddler has major medical problems and needs life-saving surgery. You'll meet Dr. Keith Georgeson - a nationally recognized leader in pediatric minimally-invasive surgery.

Doctors and staff at Providence provide a team approach, providing expert care from conception, to delivery and beyond.
