United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

Does anybody know about the Shriners in Los Angeles,CA? Their website says they treat brachial plexus, but do they treat traumatic brachial plexus? or are they only obstetric? Does anybody know about any of the shriners on the west coast? Any info would be greatly apprecited.

call them or email.

Shriners has a web-site at http://www.shrinershq.org/. According to their eligibility requirements, if they believe that they can help a child, under the age of 18, they will.

I hope all goes well for you.

My son has TBPI and I took him to Philadelphia. Shriners is a wonderful place and will treat any child under the age of 18 that they feel they can help. My son continues to be a patient at Shriners.

The poster is speaking about the shriners in san diego not philly

Not all shriners are the same very few understand BPI. So Philly is one of the best. but not many shriners deal with bpi. And I think he is asking about the Shriners in L.A.

I know that Shriner's in Chicago/OakPark does BPI too ! But haven't heard of the one in California.

There is information about the Shriners Hospital in Los Angeles in our medical resource directory. There is contact info and they filled out our questionnaire.
