No knowledge of London hospitals (and no direct experience of talipes, but know a little as my friend's DD has bilateral talipes)... do they both do ponsetti method? is one massively easier for you to travel to than the other for appointments? you might find people who have experience of both hospitals on the steps forum.

My unborn baby has also been diagnosed with Talipes and I have been recommended Alison Hulme at the Chelsea and Westminster - she specialises in the Ponsetti method.

Do you mean the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, at Stanmore?
Miss Eastwood is very good.
