What should as ask the surgeons??

My son has his first appt with the paediatric spine specialists at Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, UK, next week. We're already thinking of the questions we want to ask, but does anyone have any suggestions for the sorts of things we should ask at the appt? Like Jenny, we're assuming that spinal fusion in early infancy is what they're going to be talking, but people on this board (mainly in the USA) seem to have other options available to them. Can others point to credible research out there that supports non-surgical interventions for congenital scoliosis? Grateful for any pointers. Thanks - Lisa
