We live in Arlington, TX. My daughter went to NYC for initial bracing, and we visited CA, as Andrew Mills, head of Spinecor, fitting for final training at Dr. Gorries office. My daughter was at 38 degrees per Dr. D in NYC before brace at initial bracing. Never had supine, or lateral bending xrays done. Per above post, we were concerned with little correction on initial, but OK with Dr. D. Real pleased with second opinion of bracing with Andrew Mills at 1 month 10 degree in brace lower at 28 than 38 out of brace a month before. Felt it wise to seek Orthopedic who knows Spinecor. We are going to Shriners in Erie, PA on June 15th. I called Erie directly and said I wanted second opinion. We have an appointment, but they said if we hadn't, that many patients far away can send in Dr.'s info and Xrays for opinion to possibly avoid trip or see if needed. Did you visit Drs. Smouse? I have had other options, but planned on using them in Houston until these other opportunities came. I may still follow up there since it is the closest to me, about 4-6 hours. I am just checking Shriner's first due to expense as well. Shirley
