Hello. My son suffered a BP injury at birth. He is 13 now and has been in and out of therapy all his life. i would like to have him re-evaluated.

Is anyone aware of who the top specialists are in the Chicago area?

Thank you.

Mark S. Cohen MD
Professor, Director, Hand and Elbow Section, and Director, Orthopaedic Education, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois

It wouldn't hurt to email him and ask some questions:

mcohen3@rush.edu.

He appears to be more involved with elbow and wrist issues, but may be able to direct you to someone local that is a BPI specialist

Thanks. My son's elbow is affected, so he may be a good resource. (Unrelated, i have an elbow condition of my own; he may be a good resource for ME too.)

I appreciate your response.
