Cerebral palsy in children

Hi everyone. First time posting on this group. I hope everyone is keeping safe during this pandemic. I have a child with cerebral palsy. I am looking for a specialist consultant in this field who can provide a second opinion on my child's disability. Would anyone know of any consultants who I could see privately? I am based in the West Midlands but travelling is not a problem. Many thanks.

Hello Hasan1234

Welcome to the community and thank you for posting.

Are there any local (ish) groups where parents might be in the same situation? I did a bit of a look round and I found the cerebral palsy Midlands support group - cpmids.org.uk/

There are number of private healthcare providers that seem to offer consultations on cerebral palsy, but it would be great if someone were able to suggest someone they recommend.

Best wishes

Sarah
