I am passing along the enclosed information in the hopes that you can inform our community about the following opportunity; 1. A no-cost screening clinic will be held saturday, June 5, 1999, to identify children who can benefit from the expert orthopedic and burn care provided at Shriners Hospitals. All care provided at Shriners Hospitals is absolutely free of charge. Shriners Hospitals for Children is an international network of 22 children's specialty hospitals throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico. Eighteen of the hospitals provide orthopaedic care; three are dedicated to burn treatment, and one Shriners Hospital provides orthopaedic and burn care. Three of the Shriners Hospitals also provide long-term rehabilitative care to children with spinal cord injuries. Shriners Hospitals provide free treatment to children under 18 with orthopaedic and burn problems, without regard to race, religion or relationship to a Shriner. Visit the Shrine's Web site at http://www.shrinershq.org I am hopeful that we can "get the word out" on this wonderful opportunity for any children in need of this type of medical care. For further information, or to schedule a child for an appointment for the June 5th screening clinic, please call (757) 420-4510 God bless you. I remain, your friend, Charlie Dr. Charles W.
