  Angie L. asked:

  I'd like to get a second opinion for my daughter. Can you recommend an Orthopedist? One who deals only in Perthes in kids? We are willing to travel to find the best for our daughter...

  Dr. Matheney at Children's Hospital in Boston. 1 (617) 355-6021/ they will want to see all medical records & X-rays before you make the trip. The team of doctors want to make sure they are able to help your child before you make a appointment. Our son is in his 4 th year of Perthes.

  Dr Travis Matheny from Boston children's hospital. My son had surgery 6 years ago and we have yearly follow ups. Healing perfectly.

  My son had dr Eric Gordon He works with dr shoenecker. Love him. My son has no pain at all. They both work out of st Louis children's hospital in St. Louis. And Shriners and the baptist hospital in st Louis. Dr Gordon is letting my son decide when or if the metal has to be taken out. It's all based on pAin. But my son didn't play sports once he was on his crutches.

  Mr Simon Thomas ( we call all our consultants Mr). Bristol Children's hospital. He is a leader in the field of Perthes & lectures on it. Picked his name off the internet & was so lucky as he has changed our boys life. He got Perthes at 11. He's nearly 13 & walks really well with only a small amount of pain if he over does it. Sorry that we are so far away.

  Sandra B. asked:

  I am looking for an Orthopedic Surgeon, who specializes in surgery's for kids who were born with clubbed feet. I had one in RI but hes now retired and RI doesn't take my insurance. I need someone who SPECIALIZES, not just a regular Ortho Surgeon. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
