All too often children and adults with chronic disabilities are cared for by multiple specialists who do not communicate with one another. The unfortunate result – recommendations are made in isolation without the level of communication that is essential to a coordinated care plan. This can have a negative impact on care. At Function Clinic, our group of specialists come together to evaluate patients in one setting and develop plans collaboratively. The result is a coordinated treatment plan for the disability with the added advantage of a “one stop” assessment by all relevant medical specialties. We apply this model to all disabilities that result in neuromuscular, skeletal and urological dysfunction or anomalies.

The specialists at Function have treatments for the disabilities in children and adults that result from conditions such as:

• Anoxic brain injury
• Caudal regression, caudal regression syndrome
• Cerebral Palsy or birth injuries to the brain and spinal cord
• Dystonia
• Neurogenic bladder
• Sacral agenesis
• Sacrococcygeal teratoma
• Spastic quadriplegia, quadriplegia, quadriparesis
• Spasticity
• Spina Bifida and other spinal dysraphisms such as tethered spinal cord
• Spinal cord injury
• Spinal cord tumors
• Stroke
• Tethered cord
• Trauma injuring a part of the nervous system
• Traumatic brain injury with spasticity
