you have seen the diary on the forum right? He had complications, but I cant say if it was the fault of the institute.

you should also know that they don't have pmax at the moment and Paley won't be around for you.

Warsaw is a very safe place but it is not like Germany or USA. I do not know if you are Polish but if you aren't, expect some communication challenges

I would personally prefer to go to a more well known place like Becker or Giotikas. Doing it West Palm Beach is different from doing it some other international Paley institute.

Damm he got a fat embolism that's scary. His other complaints are normal for any surgery though. Fat embolism is the most scary stuff but one giotikas patient died from pulmonary embolism so I wouldn't say it's because of the doctor. This is a high-risk surgery.

If you want cheap Precice you can consider DR Koehne in Munich as well. At least he is quite well known and Germany is better.

If you are Polish then Paley EU institute makes sense

Don't want cheap bro, I want the best in Europe. Paley EU is more expensive than betz and giotikas.

DrKoehne is some 60k.
Dr Thaller is a lot more expensive (maybe 100k).
But he does unilateral LL which sucks because you will need one year for the whole thing.

I would not go to Paley EU just because it has Paley in the name. Meet the main docs there and decide.

People are saying good things about Dr Franz Birkholtz in South Africa these days. There is also Dr Donghoon Lee of course. Not sure why you are so hung up on Paley EU institute. I have no idea if they are good or bad, just asking.

Did consultation with both paley EU and Birkholtz and I am impressed by both. I live in eu so want to do it in EU and looking for the best option in the EU. Paley EU doctors worked under paley himself and based on my consultation with them seems like they know what they are doing. Also, they do solve lot of other non LL ortho cases which is a good thing unlike doctors who only do LL.

Okay you have done plenty of research then!

Paley EU doctors seem very qualified. If you think they will care for you properly then it might be a very good place after all.

Precice max is only available in the USA. Precice 2.2 is in Europe.
