Ohio Doctors

[Guest guest]

-we have been seeing Dr. VonStein for the last year (my daughter is 1)...as

have many people on this list. She knows her stuff and has trained with Dr.

Ponsetti on MANY occassions including a recent visit. Her staff are VERY

knowledgable in the Ponsetti method. We put our daughter's feet into her hands

and have just been amazed at the turnaround. It is possible the name " Ohio "

slipped past Dr. P since he has so much to do in one day, but I am sure if you

asked him directly either about a Cincinnati Doctor OR specifically about Dr.

VonStein he would only say the best of things. I only know this because when we

consulted with him for a second opinion, he held her in the HIGHEST regards and

only had the greatest things to say about her. If you need any more information

on her please don't hesistate to write me.

I know he recommended us to her, but our son had just come out of casts after 5

castings as was doing well and within the age range that most good Ponseti

doctors are trained and experienced. Many the age had something to do with it,

but I would think he would at least have recommended a visit to her to see what

she said. She would recommend you to Dr. P if she didn't feel comfortable and

you asked her opinion. She came highly recommended when by him when we started

going.

Perhaps the issue is really just that she may not have much experience with the

atypical/complex feet. Kelsey is also a patient of hers and we think she is

great as well but she may just not have much experience with these extra

special cases. From what I have picked up on this board, not all of the

doctors have this experience.

Thanks LeighAnne. I am actually going to call Dr. P tomorrow and I have a list

of questions for him, so I'll be sure to bring up Dr. VonStein. I think we will

make the trip to see him personally, but maybe he can refer us to her when he

goes in to the brace?

Could anyone give a list of drs that they know have experience with the

atypical/complex CF?
