Guest guest Posted September 8, 2005 Report Share Posted September 8, 2005 hi, everybody this is the first time i am posting a mesage on this group....though my husband is a member of the other group on the net and we regularly used to read messages. My son aditya is now 16 months old and he was born with congenital bilateral club feet. He was treated by a doctor who put him in 6 casts but in vain....then my husband discovered the Dr.Ponseti method on the net and he directly contacted him. Dr.Ponseti, suggested that we come to the USA....but at that time it was difficult for us to travel that far...we live in India. Then he suggested another Ponseti qualified doctor..Dr.Dhiren Ganjwala at Ahmedabad..(a city in west India). We took our baby there when he was 2.5 months old....he was treated very well by the good doctor in 4 casts. Now he is wearing the Steenbeek brace 12hrs a day. My son is able to walk, run, climb and get down with panache! Nobody can make out that he was born with an ugly deformity....not even his paediatrician! We are ever so grateful to Dr.Ponseti and Dr.Ganjwala....God bless them both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
