That's right: A-Winner-EAT-All evening at the expense of the Valley of Houston Scottish Rite. Those who may not be familiar with the Hospital's history should know that the Scottish Rite for Children Hospital was established in 1921 when a group of Texas Freemasons approached orthopedic surgeon W B Carrell, MD – Dallas first orthopedic specialist – about the possibility of providing care for children suffering from Polio. The non-profit facility, located at 2222 Welborn St, Dallas 75219, currently has 100 patient beds and, still a pediatric operation, specializes in treatment of orthopedic conditions and sports injuries; including certain related arthritic, neurological, and learning disorders including dyslexia. Patient service is free for those without insurance. Insured individuals are not billed for expenses not paid by their insurance company.
