“I strive to give children the life they deserve, and help them achieve an optimal level of health and performance,” says Dr. Avrum Joffe. Dr. Joffe treats a variety of injuries, including fractures, sports injuries, congenital limb deformities and complex hip and spine deformities. Of note, he is experienced in the treatment of ACL injuries. “With the latest techniques and newest technology, we afford kids the best outcome possible while respecting their growing limbs.”

At his new Ridgewood location, Dr. Joffe utilizes a state-of-the-art digital x-ray system, improving image quality and patient safety. “With our new location, we strive to provide a welcoming and comfortable environment for the children,” he says. “The larger, kid-friendly space and expanded staff allows us to optimize patient care and satisfaction. Our patients have never been happier, and we pride ourselves on the referrals we have received from current and former patients.”

Dr. Joffe enjoys sharing his expertise in injury recognition and prevention by speaking at local schools and community groups. He also volunteers his services to Healing the Children New Jersey, with whom he recently traveled to Ecuador to provide surgical care to children in need.
