Carl Weinert - OC, CA - call from his assistant

[Guest guest]

St. ph pediatricians talked to Weinert's assistant who told them that AFOs

and DBBs were used!?!

Weinert knew who I was and what I needed to hear plus the fact that I would tell

Dr. Ponseti, but his assistant had no reason to not tell the truth to the

pediatricians. On the opposite, she had to. The pediatrician are seeing those

babies with AFOs. Need to dig more - something's not right.....

Dear ,

We are in Orange County, too. I had the dilemma about where to go, too. I

wrote to Dr. Ponseti and he answered me soon after regarding doctors in

Orange County. Here is what he said, I am sure this will be a big help to

you and may help you avoid a trip to Tarzana since he recommends a doctor

here in Orange County. Here is the actual text of his email:

Dear Mrs. Hewitt:

Before a physician is added to my web site, I request that he send me the

photos of the feet of three babies he has treated showing the feet before

treatment was started and after it was complete, etc. In today's mail I

received this information from two California physicians: Dr. Carl Weinert,

Jr., 1310 West Dr., Suite 508, Orange, California

phone 714 633-2111 and Dr. Lerman, Shriners Hospital, 2425

Stockton Blvd., Sacramento CA 95817 phone 916 453-2049 The photos

submitted by each of these physicians show excellent results and their names

will be added to our web site.

If I can be of further service or answer questions for you at any time,

don't hesitate to be in touch.

I.V. Ponseti, M.D.

Hi ,

thanks for replying. We live in Santa Ana (Orange County). Hall

send me the link to the California available

Doctors and there are only two who we could choose from. Since

you are telling me that Dr. King is doing a good job we will

try him. I will read the protocol again and hopefully the

treatment is going to be as good as in Iowa.

How old is now? And how long was the treatment with the cast

for her?

Thank you so much for replying!!!
