Adkar Shrine Temple in Tulsa helps children of all races and religions. Children 18 years and younger with burns, clefts, club foot, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury and more come to us for help and we are more than happy to accommodate. If the Chief of Staff in one of the Shrine Hospitals says it can be done, we get it done.

A varied and wide range of pediatric orthopedic ailments are treated in our Shrine hospitals. Children with burns, cleft palette, club feet and limb length discrepancy as well as spina bifida and spinal cord injuries are just a few of the orthopedic ailments we treat.

If you know of a child that is in need of medical help, it’s easy to refer them to a Shrine Hospital. For more information, our Akdar contact information is here or you can contact a Shriner or any Shrine Center. They will gladly assist the family in completing and submitting an application.

We have also provided the contact information for all Shriner Hospitals below courtesy of The Shriners Hospital Official Website

While we can’t cure all, Shriners are there to ease the fears of children and their parents, rid any resentments and guilt so that God can bring them health by way of our Shrine Hospitals. We offer a brief list of burn and orthopedic conditions that have been and are still treated at Shriners Hospitals. If you know of a child that you feel could benefit from the help of the Shrine and do not see their ailment listed, give us a call.
