Awesome care providers for our yougest daughter as we needed to receive medical consult followed by a medical procedure for her older sister.  Every city should have a system as Philadelphia Youth Services in places for circumstances similar to ours.  We traveled from Buffalo NY seeking medical consult and treatment.  Well worth every mile making this medical visit.  We will always hold fond memories of the Baring House.
