Claire- Toronto Sick Kids

[Guest guest]

Hi, Claire-

Congrats on your pending arrival and welcome to the board! We have

quite a few families who have had experiences at Toronto Sick Kids

and I'm hoping that they'll see your post and chime in with advice-

I think there are some doctors there who are more apt to follow the

Ponseti method correctly than others- so I hope you can get some

input prior to bringing your son there about *which* doctor(s) to

see.

Regardless, if you keep us posted during his treatments, we will

hopefully be able to tell you if anything that they're doing/telling

you is a potential deviation from expected protocol.

I have a list of hints/tips on my daughter's website if you're

interested- it's at: http://ponseticlubfoot.freeservers.com/

Best wishes-

& (3-16-00, left clubfoot)
