My son was born with club feet and had casting done as a newborn. He has done ok. He is now 4 years old and continues to toe walk and have very limited dorsiflexion. He is functional, ie runs jumps plays etc. We are now faced with the decision to try casting again vs surgery.

Can anyone direct me with data of which is the best approach.

I would really appreciate expert opinions
