Help for Sick Children

June 26, 2008 01:54 PM ET | Permanent Link | Print

As the parent of a child whose main diagnosis falls under pediatric rheumatology, I would appreciate your including that specialty among "America's Best Children's Hospitals" [June 9].

Pediatric rheumatology has not been around for long, and some states do not have a single pediatric rheumatologist. Parents have to really travel far for care, and it would help them to know where to go for the best care. I'm lucky to have found a great team at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Thank you for the wonderful article and research.
