Guest guest Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 I live in asuburb of Boston, and my daughter is currently in at Children's Hospital being treated by both Dr. Kasser and Dr. Mahan. Both use the Ponseti method. Dr. Kasser is Ponseti certified. Dr. Mahan is a relatively new doctor, so she hasn't been certified yet, but works very closely with Dr. Kasser. I'd be happy to help. Feel free to email me directly with any questions about the doctors. Michele 5/18/02 and Maddie 9/6/05 bcf s 20/7 kathyfrommass wrote: How's Rose doing?? It's been awhile but am in need of some help.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 My son is also treated by Dr. Kasser in Boston. We have never seen the other doc mentioned. But by my experience Dr. Kasser is wonderful. He has hours on Tuesday mornings at the new Waltham facility and I know that he does his castings M W F am in Boston.

I do not want the regression to go too far we have worked so hard to have a near as perfect foot as possible . Zachary was born Oct. 28, 1999. We traveled to Rhode Island for 5 months before turning to the Ponseti Method which has been wonders until resently, But Zachary has had a big growth spur this past few months so that might have something to do with it.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 Dr. Kasser and Dr. Mahan are at the Children's Hospital off of Longwood Ave in Boston. They also work out of the Waltham campus. Maddie is now only 4.5 months old but is finally doing well in the s. Both doctors are wonderful, but Dr. Mahan will probably be able to see you first. Dr. Kasser is the head of pediatric orthopedic surgery, so he has a busier schedule. Sometimes the scheduling people don't understand you need an apppointment sooner than they can provide. If this happens, call the nurses, same number different extension, and they should get you in sooner.By the way, we live in Natick. let me know if you need any help. - Michele 3.5yrs and Maddie 4.5 months bcf Kathleen Furtado wrote: Hello, I have heard of your Doctor and am going to call for a appointment is he located at the Floating Hospital? How old is your child now? Zachary is 6 years old he was treated with the Ponseti Method in New York but we really do not want to travel that far now weekly.We live in New Bedford.
