New to group, AGAIN..Need Info

[Guest guest]

Hello, my name is . I checked out this site and followed for

a short time after my daughter was born, but as life goes, got busy

and didn't get back here much. is was born with one clubfoot and

one hooked foot, neither very severe as these things go ( we feel

really lucky). She was cast at 8 days old, 4 casts total with shoes

at 7 weeks. First set of shoes went very well, having some issues

with the second set. They are Markell shoes. Having a tough time

keeping them on, some red marks as well.

The information I am looking for is where to find a doctor in our new

area. We moved from Washington, where we were seeing Dr. Mosca, loved

him! Recently moved to Minnesota. Is there a website with a

directory or something? Just want to find out what the closest

options are for us! Would love some suggestions, Thanks!

Hi ,

I hope your move went well. The link on Dr. Ponseti's website

for drs trained in the method is as follows:

Looks like there are 3 in your state.

Good luck,

Where are you at in Minnesota? I live in Minnesota also. The

Schriners in the Cities is on Ponseti's website and I think one other

mom on the board takes hers to the Mayo Clinic but if I remember

right she is not to fond of her doctor. I tryed a doc in Spencer IA

(not on the list) and I decided to just drive to Iowa City and see Dr

Ponseti sence it is only about an hour and a half longer to go there

than the cities or Rochester.
