Hi, I am looking at U of M for treatment for my daughter, just wondering if anyone can give me input.
She had the modquad at TCH in 2001, but needs the caps surgury. I have only taken her to the TCH team.
The problem is the PT thinks she wont be able to go to TCH since my kids are covered by michigan medicaid, and they wont pay for services that are out of state, if it can be done by someone in Michigan.
Dr. Jebson is the Dr there. I did get the info on how to contact them, I was just loooking for any personal experiences.

Hopefully someone can help you out. I can just say that I have spoken with him before and he is a very, very nice man and quite passionate. I don't think he has tons of bpi experience like some of the others. I would be interested in learning more about his level of experience and how many of the surgeries he has done. I think he will be very open and upfront with you. Just something to consider. Good luck with everything.

hi patty - I think TCH is the only place doing the caps surgery...but you'll find out for sure as soon as you talk with them. Good luck!
