Hi Folks,
Anybody here currently or recently received any out patient treatment at Univ of Miami? What did you have done, by who? Any docs you particularly liked? Disliked? I'm looking for a complete care SCI clinic similar to Spain in Birmingham or Shepherd in Atlanta. Miami is a lot closer for me, but I'm just not sure. Any feedback about Miami appreciated.

Moving this up to the top. Have you done a web search for other rehab centers in Miami? Here is the site for the University of Miami Rehab Center: http://www.um-cprc.com/default.htm

Hopefully others will respond back with their personal experiences. PLG

Sorry, the previous web site only mentions the treatment of pain. Here is a the one that actually talks about the Miami Project and SCI Model of Care System.

Dan,
I went to Un of Mia since my accident in 6/78
Did my rehab there after being transfer from
J.F.K Gen in Lake Worth. SCI Clinic was held on
Wednesdays and my Dr. there was K. Banovac and
I also had a great Uroglist Charles Lynne,both
are Professors and good docs but getting old.
Sorry, so late in getting this info to you but
I just signed up and happened to see your post.
I just moved from Miami to just No. of Tampa and
I've been looking for Drs here. Hope I have been
of some help.
