So you think an orthopedic specialist is preferable to a neurologist for this condition?  Thanks so much.

Hi,

An orthopedic specialist is preferable if the brachial plexopathy is the result of trauma or traction injury. This condition falls under the domain of both an orthopedic specialist and a neurologist. Preferably finding someone with this condition as a sub speciality will be great.

Hi,
It is not the result of trauma or injury.  The patient is an adult.  I've been having a difficult time trying to find a neurologist who specializes in this problem.  
Thank you, again, for your thoughts.
