Guest guest Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 The doctor at psl in denver was trained by the doctor from slc. I was actually at the training and conference with a few years ago. Im sure will chime in but the doctor at psl is very good from what I know. Hope this helps in your decision.Rochelle mom to Devyn 6yrs old almost 7 (infantile scoliosis 0 degrees currently 5 yrs cast and brace free, chiari malformation)Sent from my Motorola Smartphone on the Now Network from Sprint!
