Dr. Plakas is a board-certified, fellowship-trained pediatric orthopedic surgeon and the founder of Coastal Pediatric Orthopedics. He established the practice in 2017 with a vision to deliver pediatric orthopedic care differently, creating a more accessible, responsive, and family-centered experience for every patient. Believing that modern medicine should prioritize communication and convenience, Dr. Plakas built his practice around direct accessibility, timely care, and transparent physician-patient relationships.
