Guest guest Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Dyann, My oldest son was just diagnosed w scoliosis. I asked Dr. A who she felt he should see. She gave me the name of a dr in the practice who deals with adolescents. Cant remember it. Also haven't taken him 4 an appt but plan to get his opinion. There aren't any good options in Tallahassee. Have a great weekend!
