question the specialist???

[Guest guest]

We took our 14 month old adopted daughter to the neurology center at

All Children's Hospital in St. sburg, FL today. Comparing her

head shape to those we've seen posted on the internet, we'd say she

has a moderate to severe case of plagio with misaligned ears. She

does have enough hair to disguise it a little. We were surprised

that the specialist never even touched our daughter. She was walking

around the room and he basicaly said, " Yes, she appears to have

positional plagio and it will eventually correct itself to some

degree unless she continues to favor that side while she sleeps. " He

suggested we do nothing. He said bands and helmets were much too

uncomfortable for children and would be for purely cosmetic reasons

in our case. Not that we wanted to go through all the treatment, but

we were shocked that he never touched her or tried to ascertain the

severity of her plagio. What would YOU do? See another specialist or

accept his diagnosis and suggestion?

Many thanks!
