Any experiences with DuPont Children's Hospital or CHOP?

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

I feel like I'm at the end of my rope. My little girl has been treated at

DuPont since

she was 12 days old and we're just so unhappy with the place. I don't know if

I'm

reacting to care or my personal distress, so I need a reality check here.

On Tuesday, when she got her casts off, the doctor never even looked at her

feet. He

sent in a Physician's Assistant who had never seen Devlin before and then they

sent us

over to get her DBB. Later, the doctor looked at her wearing the DBB but never

looked

at her feet.

Is it just me, or is this kind of a crucial time to look at the feet?

About a month ago we had her at CHOP for a second opinion and we met with Dr.

son. He seemed really good. But, I just called CHOP to switch Devlin to

them

and the earliest appointment they have is over a month from now!

Does anyone out there have an opinion (good or bad) about either DuPont or CHOP?

I think I'm ready to drive to Baltimore if I have to!

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
