A Medical Home for All Ages
About Us
The Weinberg Family Cerebral Palsy Center was established in January 2013, and made possible by a generous donation from Debby and Peter Weinberg and their families. Through its clinical services, education, and research programs, the Center strives to create a patient care model for people with CP, and fulfill the need for lifelong comprehensive care for those living with cerebral palsy.
The Weinberg Family Cerebral Palsy Center is a part of Columbia University Irving Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, and is currently accepting new patients of all ages.
Through education, research, and advocacy, our growing network of cerebral palsy experts aim to expand knowledge of cerebral palsy and access to care across the life span. The CP Center wants to help patients and their families of all ages manage their symptoms and reach their full potential.
