Tips for converting non-Ponseti docs?

[Guest guest]

I have been faxing info. to our first doctor about the Ponseti

method. I know many parents on here have gone back to their first

doctor who wasn't using the method to show the doc how the method

worked. I have offered to bring Zoe in, but I haven't received a

response.

Just occurred to me to ask how other people went about contacting

their old doctor. Did you just show up or did you make an appointment?

My husband is reluctant to have me " use " Zoe in this way...Any

thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Joanne-

I mailed by snail mail a 3 page letter along with articles to our 1st ortho

(who said at the time Ponseti Method was a fad) about our success with

Ponseti Method when my son was 6 months old. To my surprise she called me

the day she got the letter to let me know that she had converted over to the

Ponseti Method and a month before my letter had gone out to Iowa to train

with Dr.P! She has still yet to be certified and she apologized for

discounting the method earlier. She said she believes in it a 100% and is

hoping she will be able to obtain the same success rate Ponseti has.
