Re: BPI
He's one of the best. My son, Eric, had surgery there October 2000. We went for a follow up this October and he's getting good recovery. Dr. Kline is an expert in the field. Good Luck! Stay in touch with the board, you can learn a lot about BPI.

Have heard only good things about Dr. Kline, Shirley. Sounds as if you are in experienced hands. Welcome aboard.....sorry to hear of your injury. This is a good place to ask questions though. Many years of experience here......unfortunately. I'm a left bpi also, injured Oct. 99. Still kicking though....quite lucky to be here. Have a safe trip to Or'leeens, and let us know what the docs says. Plenty of cajun groceries there too......definately worth the stop-in if you got some extra time. Wish you the best !

Re: BPI
here is more to my last post,
make a list of qustions and take them to Dr Kline,and ask him the qustions,( even if you fell silly) He will set down and answer all your qustions,
when they check your arm they will have you close your eyes and then poke you with pins to see where you have fellin, it is part of there check up. take all medical test that you have already had , like MRI, C-T scan, Exrays, EMG's. they will look at those and might have to do a few more,
If we had to do it all again we would go back to them in a heart beat.
