Texas Children's Blue Bird Circle Rett Center

The Blue Bird Circle Rett Center specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up care of girls and women with Rett syndrome. The Rett Center also supports education and research into this neurological disorder.

An appointment with the Rett Center includes a comprehensive, multidisciplinary evaluation. Specialists are available to evaluate problems such as scoliosis, chewing/swallowing dysfunction, failure to thrive, gastroesophageal reflux and motor dysfunction. Parents must accompany their children for these appointments.

Recommendations may be made for the child with Rett syndrome to be evaluated by 2 or more of the team specialists from the Blue Bird Circle Clinic for Pediatric Neurology and in the offices of associated clinicians at Texas Children's Hospital.

More than 800 girls and women have been seen in the Blue Bird Circle Rett Center since 1985, making it one of the country’s largest resources for families of these children.
