Elks Free Children’s Orthopedic Clinic in Moline

A free orthopedic clinic for children and youth

The Illinois Elks Children’s Care Program is sponsoring a free children’s orthopedic clinic on Aug. 23  from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.

The clinic with Dr. Michael Pyevich will be at Ora Orthopedics, 520 Valley View Drive, in Moline.  The exam is free, but you must have an appointment.

The clinic is for children and youth up to age 18.  It is an ideal time to have a child checked for any bone and joint development concerns, including:

• Back, knees, legs or ankles joint pain
• In- and out-toeing
• A back curvature

There are no charges for any services performed at the clinic. No medical referral is necessary. Physicians are welcome to refer patients to the clinic for a specific reason or second opinion.

To make an appointment, call the Elks Children’s Care Program at (800) 272-0074 on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Elks Organization has worked with children with physical challenges since 1928 and provides 17 clinic locations throughout Illinois. The Elks also offer financial assistance to the best of their ability for children needing further treatment or specialty equipment when the family lacks sufficient resources.
