Shriners

Shriners Hospitals for Children, also known as Shriners Children's is a network of specialized hospitals across the U.S. Each location has different specializations including pediatric orthopaedics, scoliosis, limb differences, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injuries and burn centers. Due to his conditions, Brooks was referred to Shriner’s Children’s in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania due to their specific expertise related to his set of circumstances. Our family travels to Philadelphia annually for check-ups, scans and interventions as needed.

**Please note: We are not official ambassadors for Shriners Children’s Hospital International, nor do we claim to speak on their behalf; we are just grateful parents who have been the recipients of the generosity of these groups.
