I thought I had wrote a reply on this but can't seem to find it.I travel to Dr Grossman and dr price in Miami.They are amazing and specialize in BPI cases.Its a 4 hr drive down there and the traffic is a nightmare But it's all worth it in the care my son gets from them.They have a hospital provided apartment walking distance from Miami children's if your child has any procedures done and it's like $20. A day I believe.As for therapy...that's where I struggle-The previous post says it all.No One knows a thing about BPI anywhere near my area which is sooooo frustrating!!!! I go to a local therapist but basically do it my self!!!! I am 30 to 45 minutes from Orlando.Now a brand new children's hospital called Nemours* They are said to have it all...possible you maybe able to find a BPI Dr there as well.
My cousin is a physical Therapist in Gainsville and they are bringing in a BPI Dr sometime this month from I believe Ohio.She will be shadowing him and working close with him to learn more about bpi's.Ill keep u updated as I hear more.Hope this helps some...don't lose hope,it's out there

She's about an Hour south of me in Melbourne But she is amazing!!! The only one. Who specializes in Erbs palsy.I've seen her a few times.Only downfall was she is not in our insurance plan and was $120 a session.We did it twice but just couldn't swing $120 a week.She is a fabulous therapist who knows exactly what to do.I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a therapist and has Her in their coverage plan.Thank You Thou* maybe its an option for the previous posters
