LINCOLN
- The Lincoln Elks #914 Lodge in cooperation with the Illinois Elks
Children’s Care Corporation and Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital will
once again sponsor a free children’s orthopedic assessment clinic on
Thursday, November 10 at ALMH.
|
Assessments will be conducted by Tomasz Borowiecki, MD. Borowiecki,
an orthopedic surgeon with Springfield Clinic, will be conducting
the clinic with physician assistant, David Purvis. The clinic is
from 1pm to 3pm. Appointments are required.
The clinic is an ideal time to have a child reviewed for bone and
joint development. If your child complains of back, knee, leg, ankle
pain or has a back curvature, they can be seen at the clinic. No
medical referral is necessary for the clinic, however, physicians
are welcome to refer patients to the clinic for a specific reason or
second opinion.
The Elks Organization has been working with physically challenged
children since 1928. There are 17 clinic locations throughout
Illinois.

The Elks will provide financial assistance to the best of their ability for
children needing further treatment or specialty equipment when the family lacks
sufficient resources to do so. In the past, the Elks have purchased therapy
services, corrective shoes, braces, orthotics, wheelchairs and augmentative
communication devices to help children overcome a variety of physical
challenges.
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital is located at 200 Stahlhut in Lincoln, IL. To
make an appointment for the clinic, call the Illinois Elks Children’s Care
office at 1-800-272-0074 anytime between 9am - 4pm, Monday through Friday. There
are no charges for any services performed at the clinic.
