Mis_tree - so sorry to hear someone has made an error. Our specialist said it was virtually impossible for anything to go wrong once it is corrected and if something was to go wrong it would take years for it to show up on x-ray so that is why we don't need to go back to specialist until DD is 5yrs. Is your specialist an Orthadpedic Surgeon ours also was a paediatric specialist? My understanding is they are the Dr's that specialise in this condition and therefore are they most trained to know when kids are ready to come out of the brace.

I really hope you get some answers.
