I would like to introduce you the Paley European Institute clinic, which has been operating in Poland for 2 years and deals with limb lengthening. Our specialists - Dr. Jaroslaw Michal Deszczynski, Dr. Tomasz Albrewczynski, and Dr. Dror Paley operate in Europe for patients who want to gain additional centimeters of height.
Today we have a dedicated website for this, which will soon also be in English.
https://wydluzaniekonczyn.pl/kosmetyczne-wydluzanie/
Our specialists gained enormous experience with Dr. Paley, Florida, and today they operate on patients themselves. For more information, please contact me.
A little more about the Paley European Institute:
We are the European branch of the American Institute founded by Dr. Dror Paley - a world-famous expert in the field of pediatric orthopedics. We specialize in the treatment of congenital, developmental and post-traumatic orthopedic diseases and rehabilitation of young and adult patients.
We provide the highest standards of care and use the most technologically advanced methods of treatment. Our specialists are distinguished not only by unique knowledge, but also by an interdisciplinary approach and emotional commitment of the entire team, which is present at all stages of the patient's recovery.
We listen to the needs of our patients and share with them the time they need. We prepare and explain exactly how the individually created treatment plan will run. Our team accompanies the patient throughout the therapy process. In addition to the support of doctors and physiotherapists, the patient can also count on the help of Medical Care Coordinators and a psychologist who will guide you through the entire treatment process.

paley should focus more on being the great doctor he is than creating a brand. whats the use if Paley operates in Europe and runs back to sunny Florida soon after? who will do the follow ups? paley should watch his own interview with cyborg4life and realise how important post op follow up is.

There are several other surgeons who perform the surgery at this centre - not Paley himself. It is just affiliated with Paley and uses the same methodology, PT, follow up structure as the Paley Institute in Florida.
-
what follow up structure? once every 2 weeks? thats globally the case.
leg length surgery stretches are simple but the PTs need to be trained well. They are in Florida but in this new hospital?
Its ridiculous to name it after him. It makes it seem like you will his personal care when he wont even be there 90% of the time.
its not like opening a new mcdonalds store LOL.
-
Are there any quotes available for the Polish practice?
-
Sounds like they opened up a KFC chain or something. Then idiots on the forum accuse me of marketing my doctor, pathetic.
-
Is there info of patients treated?
costs?
follow up ? etc
-
Who will do the surgery. Is it possible that Paley is going to do it himelf?

Hi guys
I am patient at European institute
And I must commend the complex cases dr. Paley handles here. Recently a kid was told by all doctors to get amputation for legs and paley operated and saved the legs. I see this child in recovery and on 2 months he would be walking.
I was to do my surgery jn Florida but due to Covid I couldn’t do it. Hence dr. Paley suggested I do it in poland.
If he does surgery it’s 90k usd which was my case. Any complications keep another 10k extra which I did due to my ft embolism.
The local doctors here who do follow up were all trained in Florida under dr. Paley and then senior guy was sent to open European office in poland. The institute is expanding.
Doing it with local docs would be around 65k usd but then paley doesn’t operate the senior guy here does.
I love approach here because they deal with so many kids they didn’t care how many hours of physio I needed the local team gave me what was needed for my recovery.
I am now in last month of distraction and from there on I am back to Portugal.
It worked out great for me and I don’t think this is like a fast food franchise.
Dr. Paley is saving lives and dreams of many young children and I truly salute his work. Sadly we see only CLL side to it but the world is out there for severe deformities that need true skills to rectify.
Also I learnt patience and perseverance as these young kids tolerate severe therapy which even I can’t.
Overall great.
Dr. Paley oversees and visits European arm and he told me once if they were not upto my standards I would not add my name to it.
So it’s not a franchise but his European wing.
Hope this clarifies.

What did you have done?

I wouldn't pay $90 (let alone 90k!) to be operated by an aged and jet-lagged surgeon who just flew in from the other side of the world a couple of days earlier. It sounds unsafe and not like Paley "safety first etc". Imo it is very dissapointing to see Paley at the sunset of his glorious career betraying his principles and condescending to fly over half the Globe just to pocket a few (thousands) extra bucks. There are other ways or for a mentor to support their trainees if they want to.
all the best with your recovery.

I had femur lengthening
Currently at 6cm in distraction phase. By end of month at 7cm
Waiting for blood results next week to decide if I wanna push last 1 cm
Once again this is not paley assisting his team but his own institute in Europe
Furthermore most cases r severe complex deformities for children born with bone defects.
We should support this initiative as not all can get to the US first and second his experience in handling such cases is second to none

I think their official site is:

Not sure why OP was linking to some polish local version.
No information on prices on the website though. Maybe this Paley European branch is very new?
-
No mention of any costs
-
any idea of the costs?

US prices is roughly 7.5k more
-
Seems worth it - for the us
Contacted them - they will not give any estimate of prices at all - eu institute

I wrote to them and asked for the external methods - thought it could be affordable for me. They either did not understand my question, or it's just the fact- I was told, regardless of the method, 250 k PLN (so roughly 65 k USD) with full package.
I was hoping for something like 25 k USD externals (which is still huge money in Poland), and 50-60 k USD for internals. They say however - 65 k USD whatever you do.
-
Paley does not do external method for cosmetic anymore he hasn't for a long time (decade) even if patient willingly wants to

In order to achieve up to 13 additional centimeters of height, it is possible to perform a combined tibial (5 cm) and femoral (8 cm) lengthening three weeks apart.
They seem to be pushing it to the limits.

These prices are a bit too much...
