Specialty Pediatric Care at Shriners Children's
Changing Lives and Fulfilling Potential
Shriners Children’s compassionate, family-centered and collaborative environment welcomes children and families through our doors and into our hearts. Because we personalize the care we provide to each child, we get to know everything about them – from the challenges they face to what brings them joy.
While some patients need basic care, others face more complex conditions that require care over months and even years. These patients and their families tell us that Shriners Children’s feels like a second home, because we care so deeply for them, physically, emotionally and socially.
Other doctors told us that there wasn’t much anyone could do. After we met with providers at Shriners Children’s Portland, we had a much more positive outlook.
