has anyone heard of this doctor

[Guest guest]

Tara,

I don't know Dr. Ulin but I just wanted to say that I definitely agree with

you on paying for the out of network benefits so your son can be treated by

Dr. Scher. We have been down that road with a doctor who says he does the

Ponseti Method but fails to mention he changed it to his own liking.

Good Luck. Keep us posted.

has anyone heard of this doctor

Hi there,

I live in NYC and planned on having Dr. Scher look after my son's feet once

he is born (due

July 4th). I have just been informed by my insurance company that they will

not cover Dr.

Scher because they have two other doctors in their network that practice the

Ponseti

Method. One of the drs they wouldn't recommend at all and the other they

gave me his

name. It is Dr. Ulin. I called Joyce in Iowa and they have never

heard of him there.

Has anyone on this forum heard anything at all about him. I am so scared to

have

someone treat my son who doesn't follow the Method to a tee. I will probably

choose to

pay out of pocket rather than have a non Dr. Ponseti endorsed doctor treat

my son.

Once again, thank you.

I haven't heard of Dr. Ulin. What hospital is he affiliated with? We live in

NYC as well and take our son to Dr. Feldman who is chief of Pediatric

orthopedics at NYU and he doesn't accept our insurance either, but we go to him

anyway. It's definitely worth it to go to someone who is trained in the method

properly and knows what they are doing. If Ulin is at NYU or Hospt. of Joints

Diseases then he most likely practices the Ponseti Method.

Dr. Ulin is an orthopaedic surgeon at Mt. Sinai. His subspecialty is pediatric

orthopaedic

surgery. I don't get a good feeling from all of this. We are going to have to

start a fight

with our insurance co.

We live on Long Island and travel to the city to the Hospital for bone

and joint diseases. We see Dr. Lehman and Dr. Van Bosse.

my son has been seeing dr. scher since he was born two years ago. i

can enthusiastically recommend dr. scher. he knows what he is doing,

follows the method without alteration, and has a great manner.

in fact, before my son was born, i emailed ponseti and asked him who

the best guys in nyc were, and he gave me a list in order; scher was

at the top.

feel free to email (offline, as i dont check the board much anymore)

me if you have any questions.
