Sometimes children are born with medical conditions that need surgical care. Other times, it’s an illness or injury that requires a planned or immediate surgical treatment. Together, Boys Town National Research Hospital and Children’s Nebraska Surgery provide children the care and treatment they need, when they need it, from a team of board-certified pediatric surgeons, trained pediatric nurses and medical staff who focus on the unique needs of infants, children and adolescents.

Your Child's Surgical Stay

Pediatric general surgery includes a variety of common to complex treatments ranging from minimally invasive outpatient procedures to surgeries that require an inpatient stay. Whether your child has a temporary or extended stay at Boys Town Hospital, you will find comfort in a private family-friendly room with access to portable gaming stations and a playroom. Family and friends may visit before and after your child's surgery, as well as wait in the comfort and privacy of your child's room during surgery.
