Daniel Bouton, M.D. (Guest): It’s really nice for me to be able to look at a family when they come with seemingly nowhere else to turn and say to the family, as well as the patient, “We can help you here.” That’s my favorite part about working here.
Hi, I'm Dr. Daniel Bouton. I'm a pediatric orthopedic surgeon at the Shriners Hospital for Children in Portland. I specialize in pediatric spinal deformity as well as pediatric and adolescent hip disorders. I really love working at the Shriners Hospital because we have such an excellent team. I'm just one small part of the team, but the amazing support staff we have here that consists of therapists and doctors and nurses and social workers. It’s just an endless amount of support for the patient’s families, and I don’t think that kids could get better care anywhere else.
What drew me to work for Shriners Hospital for Children is their mission for providing quality of care for kids. One fun fact that people might not know about me is that I love to go skiing. I actually recently took my four-year-old daughter up and starting to teach her how to ski and I already am having trouble keeping up with her. I love to do that in my free time and that’s what drew me to the pacific northwest.
My philosophy of care is to work with the family as well as the great support staff that we have here at the hospital to give the children back their childhood. I want to make sure that they have a good, happy, and healthy life, but also not lose site of the fact that they are a kid and they want to do fun kid things. I try to keep that as much of a possibility as I can.
