United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

My name is Doreen and I live in Minneapolis. I am in desperate need for a physical med/rehab doctor and physical therapist familiar in brachial plexus /tos disorders. If ANYONE knows of practitioners in my area I would be so grateful. Sincerely, Doreen

Well we keep on hearing about Dr. Drake at Shriner's Hospital in Minneapolis. Maybe if you called him you could get a referral to an adult specialist? Just a thought.

Try the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Good luck.

Hi Doreen,
My sister lives outside of Minneapolis and she works at a facility called The Courage Center. She is a speech therapist but she has told me that they have children with bpi getting physical/occupational therapy there. They also have a therapeutic pool. E-mail me and I can get you the phone numbers. There is also a place called The Special Chilren's Center in Hudson, WI (it's about 25 minutes from St. Paul).
