Anyone know where the closest adult BPI specialist is to CT. I know NY has a few. Anywhere else that isn't listed on the resources directory?

Thanks.

Is this for a birth injured or trauma injured adult?

This is for someone who is an adult that was injured at birth.

I saw Dr.Abbott in NY and he did the MRI for me. I tried several local neurologists and they did not have the least bit of knowledge on OBPI/adults. When I went for help I was offered all sort of pills. I needed PT and was told "there is no pain with ERB'S... My emg was so painful and I should have had a bpi specialist do it for me.

It is very important for adult/obpi to have a doctor who understands the injury and can see how this injury has changed their body. If I can help in anyway please let me know- - I live 40 minutes north west of NYC.
