why isnt there livelifetaller like service in USA?
« on: May 19, 2021, 01:51:13 PM »

patients of livelifetaller appear to have a jolly time during the procedure. they are pampered and taken care of. need an xray? it will come to your bed. need the doctor? he will come to you. bored? you will be taken to istanbul for an outing. have an emergency? you will taken to the hospital. talk to any of the fellow patients about your paranoid thoughts when your feeling scared.

doctors in USA do far more volume than in Turkey. why hasnt anyone started a service like this? "pay a package price and have get everything taken care of". after all logistics is one of the biggest hurdles for a leg length surgery patient. all those "what ifs" eat up your mind.

if anyone starts working on this I ask for a 0.5% commission non negotiable

I’m 6 days post op and honestly I thought the buldu patients were fake because of that. I thought “no way the doctor would come to you, or his assistant will do blah blah blah” I thought it was bs, but honestly they do. 2 days ago his assistant came to my hotel, picked up my prescription and went to pick it up, card declined for fraud alert, paid for it and I paid him back. at midnight

I don't live far from North Hollywood.  If there's a market I might get into it.  Anyone interested in staying at Hotel MDOW?

For the price people are paying in the U.S, they should be serving patients fancy dinners and wine for 3 months..

You have to know that those are just propaganda and marketing, but the truth is that my time at LLT was the most difficult time of my life.

The US doesnt allow medical practices that regularly cripple people.

Is this one of their patients? http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=64498.0

I agree, there could be better ones in the USA. There is no such organization that I know of. I would never have surgery on livelifetaller.

I'll start it now and with more efficiency than LLT. everyone cash app me $40k and I'll cripple you. I can do it in 15 mins, no anesthesia necessary and possibly no hospital stay. We have many methods available if you have more money like full paralyzation but you'll have to consult for that one. Watch out halil you've got some competition!

Here’s why: Doing what you describe, this concierge service that happens at the ring of a bell, would be extremely expensive. double what it already is in the Us.

The package would come with a very high price tag.

Full time employment of staff, and amenities  costs a lot more in the US.

There are no "jolly" times during CLL.  It's painful pretty much the whole time.  The LLT is very good at marketing...maybe they really do have some other services that make it appear easier.  When I did this, it was pretty much pain all the time, but hey...if you wanna be taller this is what you have to tolerate.  When you do cll, you have to already be looking on the other side of it and know that you just have to go through hell to get to the other side.

Workforce cost a lot less in Turkey along with everything else. To give you one example , while the annual cost of a physiotherapist in Turkey is 12-15 thousand dollars, it is 80-100 thousand dollars in the USA. If you are a westerner with a low-paid job, Turkey is a paradise for plastic surgery.

If there were such a company in the USA, very heavy penalties would be imposed on the doctor and that company for the slightest mistake.

Turkey is very unique in that they can pay workers very little for relatively quality service. The Doctors are very accommodating to their patients who are paying a whole lot of $$ for just that service. Turkish people are happy to work even for a lower salary relative to the US standard. I believe this to be the case in many foreign countries.
