base on my personal experience: So would I recommend leg lengthening, yes)) but find a good doctor!!! someone who cares and prioritize your health. would i recommend Dr. Barinov, despite of his stupidity of fking me up with visa situation, now thanx to that I can not come back to Russia for 5 years, and i really want to for many fking reasons. And also, despite of my bowed leg! on his defense he is willing to fix it so it is ok I guess. Yes I would recommend him still. I'm 172 and have 1 bowed leg so it could be worse. We are finding ways to fix my bowed leg thou, maybe ill come to the clinic in czech republic. will see. what else... the hospital is not good but not an ass hole either, the clinic is fine, it is actually great! lot of people, nice help, one nurse for only davinci patients, the doctor is there all the time (business hours) all is good in that sense. i would love to give Barinov a 10 out of 10 rating but I can't!(((( my bowed leg does not allow it even when he wants to fix it, still this shouldn't happen. I give him an 8 out of 10. Personally I think for Leg lengthening a 7 out 10 and above is fine for a doctor.
