United Brachial Plexus Network

I am looking to get my son established as a patient at the Brachial Plexus Injury clinic at Scottish Rite in Atlanta, GA. Does anyone have any experience here? I know they have a new doctor, Dr. Ratner. His bio said he trained at Shriner's in Philadelphia, which is where we normally go. I just wante...

We actually live in GA, but my entire family is in Springfield, MO. We will be there the week of Thanksgiving.

<r>We live in Atlanta, Covington area, and we see Dr. Kozin in Philly. We are very happy there and actually have to see him again in August. We also saw Dr. Schwentker, but I fell in love with Dr. Kozin and his staff. We do use OT and PT at a CHOA satellite clinic and I can't say enough wonderful th...

<t>My son had the tendon transfer last year. The cast doesn't cover the scar. It is about 3 to 4 inches and is mostly in the armpit area. I hate the Philly airport. Security takes forever.

You can reverse the strap on that and it can go over either shoulder. He may be to little for one of thos...

My son's BPI arm ALWAYS burns. I always put stronger sunscreen on his injured arm and have to reapply to it much more often than the rest of his body. I guess it is a sensory thing.

Hi,

We actually live in Atlanta, but we will be vacationing in Panama City in October. We'd love to meet you, I know it is a long way off. Feel free to email me if you'd like

<t>GAMOM,<br/> I have the same insurance and they gave me huge problems paying for my son's therapy after his 1st birthday due to diagnosis issues. Anyway, we went round and round and round. Finally, I told them that I was getting the insurance commissioner's office involved. Two hours later, I rece...

Hey Carol. This is Melinda. The 10th works well for us. My niece's birthday party is on the 3rd, but if it works out best to have the gathering on the 3rd, we'll make arrangements. We look forward to seeing all of you again.
