My wife and I just found out that our baby boy due Sep 4th has

bilateral clubfoot. It has been diagnosed as moderate to severe and

we are looking for some help. We have looked into Dr P. quite a bit

and would like to hear about some real results from someone who has

been through what we are getting ready for. We have many questions

of course, we are in Phoenix, AZ and wonder if there is anything

local here being done. Would also like some opinions on surgery vs.

this method we have read about being performed by Dr. Ponseti himself

or someone practicing his methods. Please help us if you can.

Hi, we are in kind of the same boat. Our boy, yet unnamed, is due 8/9 and was

diagnosed with bilateral clubfoot. We were not shocked since my husband was

born with it (went on to grow 6 foot 6 inches and play college basketball).

I, too, could not find any " local " doctors on the Ponseti site. But I emailed

Dr. Ponseti with regard to my location and he emailed back indicating that

another doctor (just down the street from us) had just sent him information and

pictures regarding his work and Dr. Ponseti said he would be adding him to his

site and recommend him. So that is something you may want to try, too.

All in all, I think information is the best comfort now. We are meeting with the

Doctor recommended this Friday to outline the treatment and get comfortable with

him.

Good luck!!

Antoinette,

Thank you for your reply, we have contacted Dr Ponseti's office and

are awaiting a reply on qualified doctors in our area. Your husbands

story is great, we all hope to be so lucky.
