I emailed a couple of days ago. I will wait till Tuesday and try emailing again. Although the cost of LL will take a significant amount of my savings I would rather try to find the 5 or 10 thousand extra if Dr Donghoon thinks that I will be able to leave a few weeks sooner because of the weight bearing. Also, from what I’ve read on the forums, being able to be mobile during distraction phase, will hopefully contribute to a more successful healing and I’m hoping with the STRYDE that will be so. It would be really nice to have a diary from a brand new Paley patient.....he’ll maybe I’ll try to find the 50grand extra to do that.....lol

Usually, it takes about a week or more to receive replays since the mails are send thru his assistants.

Ahh....thank you Chibi. Just me being impatient.

Anyone else considering either Donghoon or Monegal this year or next?

So he said he'd get back to him and email him in June when the new facility is built. Does anyone have an update as to when he estimates he'll carry Stryde since esq was banned?

talked a guy went new clinic last week and said that not yet sure when the stryde would come out in korea.
like dr paley, most doctors would not disclose the date until very last moment, cause it would affect business wise.

As I posted in the email above, Dr. Donghoon Lee will be the first surgeon in Asia to offer STRYDE. Unfortunately, no date is available for STRYDE in Asia.

If anyone on the forum is fluent in Korean, please provide a brief description as to the details of this news story. There is a chance this might be coverage about the new medical center that Dr. Donghoon Lee just opened, but that's just a guess on my part.

This news story also includes interviews with Dr. Rozbruch @ 1:52 & Dr. Paley @ 2:43.

Leggs · « **Reply #40 on:** October 02, 2018, 12:48:44 PM »

Dr. Donghoon Lee has just moved into a brand new state of the art hospital. Dr. Donghoon Lee has chosen the name Donghoon Advanced Limb Lengthening Reconstruction Institute in honor of his teacher Dr. Paley. The facilities look quite impressive on his new updated website.

Website: http://www.drdonghoon.com/landing/en.html

Now for the not so good news about STRYDE. Read the email below.

The video below is in English with interviews from Dr. Rozbruch & Dr. Paley among others giving praise to Dr. Donghoon Lee.

I don't know why there are not enough Dr. Donghoon diaries on the forum.

Pros:

1. He has very good experience with doing limb lengthening (cosmetic as well) using Precice
2. He offers an all inclusive package. You don't have to worry about stay, getting around, PT, food, emergency situations, etc. You are in a hospital even while lengthening.
3. South Korea is a developed country, (since many have reservations about going to India, Vietnam, etc)

Cons:

1. Language barrier. People don't speak English well. I doubt even Dr. Donghoon himself speaks much English. I haven't found a video of him speaking English.
2. South Korea might not be a liberal place like US and there is discrimination (not that this would affect an LL patient much).
3. Very few diaries on the forum

Dr. Donghoon Lee just opened a brand new medical center. The name is Donghoon Advanced Lengthening Reconstruction Institute (DALRI) in honor of his teacher Dr. Paley.

Website: https://drdonghoon.com/?lang=en

YouTube Channel: https://bit.ly/2TiVs8P The YouTube Channel has hundreds of videos. Including post lengthening patient exercises, patient inteviews, fellow surgeon interviews, new facilities, etc...

The good news is that STRYDE might be available sooner than expected. Top executives from NuVasive just took a trip to Seoul.

International patients are provided with the option to stay in the new medical center for the duration of their lengthening (90-120 days). Patients are provided with food, accommodation, medication, physical therapy, transportation to & from airport, etc... A full concierge service.

Cons:

4. Unfortunately, The high cost of having CLL with Dr. Lee. I do not know what he currently charges, however, even before he opened his new center his prices were only slightly below those in the West. While I agree that Dr. Lee appears to be an excellent and highly skilled surgeon, the high cost of having surgery with him is prohibitive for probably 90-95% of people looking to have CLL...

Leggs · « **Reply #45 on:** November 23, 2018, 05:09:10 PM »

Prices above are only for the remainder of 2018. Prices for 2019 will be available soon, along with updated information on the potential availability of Stryde.

10 out of 15 future LLers who Ive known are planning to go to Dr Lee
I think lot more people are actually interested in expensive but safer options than before

It’s because even if get it done cheaply, with complications and longer downtime, it will end up more expensive than safer options

Above are the prices for 2019, along with interviews about Dr. Donghoon Lee from Dr. Paley & Dr. Rozbruch. Stryde availability in South Korea is still uncertain, the goal is a date for later this year.

Why I Cant find a single Diary here about this Dr ?
& Do you guys think his price is a Scam?
Like 70k for Precice 2 ! & who knows how much will he charge for Stryde?

Do you think he is equal to Giotikas ?
Should i just go with Giotikas or wait 2/3 years save money and go with Dr Lee?

sylar94 · « **Reply #49 on:** June 02, 2019, 12:59:06 PM »

You can find many diaries with him in the old forum.
You can see many of his patients on his youtube channel.
I think he is the 3rd best doctor in the world with internal methods.

Kenda · « **Reply #50 on:** June 02, 2019, 04:01:52 PM »

I dont know the old forum, but im wondering why no one in this forum talks about him....they only talk about some Drs from germany and india 😂

yes, a good hospital helps, but it is the doctor's skills and decision making that will make you LL a success

I think that most of Lee's patients are Koreans, Japanese and Chinese.

They will probably report in their own language in their community.

He is quorified instructor of Precice and Stryde

I absolutely agree with you. I think Dr. Lee is perhaps the safest choice because I found that he is very conservative about lengthening amount and rate and very caring about his patients. He has lots of experience in CLL and is a qualified instructor for Precice/Strdye. But his price is more expensive than Dr. Giotikas and slightly more expensive than Dr. Kevin Debiparshad, and Dr. Dr Shahab Mahboubian, although his package seems to provide a little more than others and his price is still cheaper than Dr. Paley and Dr Rozbruch.
So if you stay in US, Dr. Lee may be necessarily not the better choice.
