Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 Thanks to all that replied to my last message regarding the problems that my son had with the Dennis-Brown brace/shoes. Toby had bad blisters and needed to be w/out treatment for 3 weeks to allow them to heal. Our Doctor, Dr. Showalter, is an approved ponseti method provider and put Toby back in casts. We are considering ordering the " ponseti brace " by that have open heels as well. I know others have had success with this brace but, due to the cost (insurance will not pay for second pair), am wondering if I should give the Dennis-Brown shoes/brace another try? Many of you that replied indicated that the blisters were probably due to his feet not being corrected enough and now that the correction is much better, I am wondering if he will have a better time with the old brace? Just wondering what I should do? Toby is in casts for now until we can get the new brace, but would like to get some input before ordering it. Thanks so much for sharing your stories.
