Re: New to this group./ Dr. Honeycutt

[Guest guest]

,

Does Dr. Honeycutt do banding now? I thought he referred plagio

babies to Bill Barringer. I've added his name to the subject line I'm

sure we have members that have used him and will chime in.

Not sure. Haven't had the appointment yet, but Liz's ped seems to think so. I'll

have my dh call Dr. Honeycutt's office to see. It's the whole point of us going

to

OKC.. I'd hate to waste a trip. Thanks for the info.

Unless he's started banding babies this February he doesn't band

babies. He will most likely refer you to Bill Barringer who uses the

STARband and is located

The University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center,

Department of Orthopedic Surgery and Rehabilitation,

920 Stanton L. Young., Room WP1380;

Oklahoma City, OK 73117-1026

Dr. Honeycutt was the neurosurgeon who referred to Bill Barringer. He said he doesn't normally recommend the helmet but will give a prescription for one if the parents want it. He did recommend one for due to the facial asymmetries though.

, if you have any questions feel free to ask. just graduated one week ago today from his STARband. I cannot say enough good things about Bill Barringer. Let us know how her casting goes.
