“Although we will miss Rusty Miller in the Longwood clinic in downtown Boston (we've been seeing him since January 2018), Nick Grigorieff was a pleasure to work with. Our daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis in late 2017 and although 95% corrected to date, Dr. John Emans at Boston Children's Orthotics, thought it was a good idea to have our daughter wear one more brace, her fourth, while she goes through her last growth spurt. Nick measured and fitted her recently for that brace in Worcester. If we have any concerns and/or questions, Nick will be there for us and with only half the drive into Boston. That part is especially nice. We have had nothing but a positive experience with everyone at Boston O&P over the years. Thank you!!” (7/31/2021)

“During the measurement process Brad told us the pick-up brace appointment would be two hours. Although, who wants to do a two hour appointment with a 16 month old, having the heads up was great! We packed extra snacks, toys, and other fun things to last the wait time as Brad made the necessary modifications to the brace. We were there as long as needed and left with a well fitted brace. Brad made a follow up appointment for one week out for any adjustments needed. the whole team at Peabody's O and P is kind, respectful and knowledgeable.” (5/27/2021)

“I don't even know where to begin. Kaitlin Rivest has been amazing to work with at Boston O&P! She has gone out of her way to help us get adjusted to my daughter's back brace. She was extremely nice, knowledgeable, and professional when we first had our first appointment with her. Once we got home and the reality of the brace sank in, we had some issues. I emailed Kaitlin and she got right back to me and continued to email me with helpful suggestions until she eased my mind. She even arranged for me to exchange my daughters tank tops with the office closer to my home. Our 2nd visit was just as good as the first. She was very reassuring and eased my daughters mind when it came to wearing the brace and the length of time we'd have it. Overall our experience was amazing because of Kaitlin. I can't say enough about her!!” (5/21/2021)

“Michelle and Jennifer in Stony Brook are nothing less than AMAZING every time we go there! My daughter absolutely LOVES going to the orthotist, which is something I never thought I'd say as her DMO was definitely not her favorite thing.

I have already emailed twice - and even when he was out of the office - he responded within a short time! Can't say enough good things about him!” (3/15/2021)

“My sons experience at Boston O&P has been wonderful. The Stony Brook office is very accommodating and we felt safe.
