Hello guys, I posted in Hasaki's thread about this but since Halil did so much damage to me I have to make my own thread. First I will make a concise summary and then I will get into detail of what he did exactly:

I did LON at the end of october 2021









Everything was going well. I was one of the best healing persons they had. I could bend my knees right after surgery and could walk pretty well. To the point that butcher halil tried to come to my room to record me and show what a good doctor he was following up on one of his patients on his instagram. Of course, I never saw butcher halil after the surgery except for that occasion that he tried to record me.

Anyways soon after, I developed an infection(did not know this at the time) and open legs because of it. As I said, I did not know it was an infection, all I knew is that my legs would not close and that I had a lot of pain, way more on my left leg than my right leg. I couldn't tolerate the pain so I stopped lengthening at 5.4cm(my target was 6cm).

During the frame removal surgery, I got to see butcher halil and I told him about my pain. He said "ok I will release the IT band." I was in so much pain and already tied up to be operated so I just nodded, I didn't know what that meant. Anyways, when I got to see my legs again I noticed that there was a ball in my leg, turned out that, that was where he released my IT band. I asked ilayda my physcial therapist but she said it was normal. I believed her and just continued to do physical therapy and wait to heal.

This is how it looks like to this day:





Anyways as I said, I was home but my left leg's top wound would not heal. I contacted live life taller(crippled) over whatsapp, why my leg wouldn't heal but they said it was normal, to just keep doing physical therapy. Until puss started coming out. Below are pictures of the infected wound sites, keep in mind puss would come out of them:





Anyways, I contacted them again and they obviously could not deny that I had an infection and asked me to fly back to Turkey so they could remove the infection. I did, total trip end up costing me about $5k. Butcher halil opened up the area where the puss was coming out of and removed the infection. I was happy, I thought I finally would heal.


I enjoyed about a month of walking around crippled while I started noticing my outer thigh was atrophying and I was developing muscles in my inner thigh. I was walking very odd(still walk like that to this day) and I started developing suspicion that it was my IT band and I asked live life taller (crippled) but they said it was normal, to just keep doing physical therapy. So I did until all of a sudden I started developing sharp pain in my left leg again and my left was becoming swollen also. Scared that the infection came back I went to the ER. The ER told me that they checked everything, running blood tests and a cat scan. They found I had a lose nail. I contacted butcher halil buldu and sedat to tell them this and they told me to fly to Turkey which I did. Again another $5k dollar expense plus time off from work(~10k usd at the time)

Anyways, while in Turkey I told butcher halil buldu about all of my pain, how my IT band did not feel right, how my muscles don't fall into place, how I have a lose screw and no infection and he ignored it all. He got me an x-ray and then he told me that the x-ray showed a lose screw but he also said I have an infection(contradicting what the american doctors said despite him not running any tests). I asked him how he knows I have an infection and he said my blood tests show a high crp. I told him, "the crp is a sign of inflamation, there's inflamation because of the lose screw, there's no infection, doctors in America already proved it to me." But he ignored me, he has a huge ego and won't listen to anyone but himself. Anyways, I also asked sedat for an MRI and he said yeah but then sent me to go get an x-ray and then told me it was an MRI. I let it go because I did not want to fight, afterall, I would be under anasthesia by that butcher halil buldu again.

Butcher halil buldu ignored all of my concerns and symptons but I was scared he would not remove the lose screw so I accepted his antibiotic medication, IV and the external frame again. But again, I told him about my lose IT band and he said he cannot make it tighter, I asked him if he cannot make it tighter can he make my leg longer and he said there was no need, once the infection(which I did not have) was cured, I would walk normally and my bone would heal(I still cannot walk normally and my bone did not heal). I did not believe him anymore at this point but I accepted to wait and see.

I let him threat the imaginary infection(again he never tested for it) by removing and replacing the titanium nail I had inside and taking the IV and antibiotics for about 3 weeks while wearing the monorail frame again. Here's x-rays of the left leg




As you can see, the left bone didn't grow. How could it grow when I am not using that part of my leg when I walk(remember I walk crippled)?All of the force is excerted in my inner thigh

But anyways, I eventually took the frame off and he inserted the nail back in and I flew back home. Things were the same as when I flew back home without an infection the first time because the screw was no longer lose but I was not getting better. The area where he inserted the screw in my lower thigh would not heal. My left outer thigh where he cut the IT band started to atrophy completely and my inner thighs developed muscle. I also started to develop pain in my joints and muscles by my tibia. After about 3 months of this I went to get an xray. The xray showed absolutely no improvement on my bone growth on the left side of my bone:




I messaged them asking why and they didn't have an answer, I told them it's my IT band "because it's lose I am not using the left side of my thigh and because I'm not using it my bone is not growing." Halil slipped, he said he would do precise to lengthen my leg and add resistance and I said ok. But I told them before I went to turkey to do this I was going to see a local doctor to get a second opinion and do physical therapy because I wanted to be sure before going through the pain of lengthening my leg again.

So I went to a local doctor and obviously he had never seen a case like mine. He didn't have much to say other than that he didn't think my bone would ever grow fully back. Anyways, after enough time of doing physical therapy, I messaged butcher halil again that I was going and asked him if he would lengthen my leg and do bone grafts or what would he do and he ignored me. Sedat also ignored me but I also messaged mesuade(another live life taller(crippled) worker), she answered and set someone to pick me up from the airport. 

Anyways, I flew back to see butcher halil buldu november 22 2022, I arrived the next day on Istanbul. They got me xrays and the next day, november 24th, I saw butcher halil buldu. He didn't even greet me or look at me in the face. I started describing my pain and immediately he started berating me, saying I could not have pain there, that it is impossible. I described my pain in my joints and he said it's not his problem, he did not touch my joints. But of course, I answered back telling him all the muscles and tendons are connected, if my IT band is not working then it is natural that it would affect other muscles. Then he saw my x-ray and he said my growth is fine but it is not fine, it is only slightly better than the x-ray above, it's been about 10 months since infection removal and there's no bone in 1/4 of my femur, this is not acceptable. Then he walked off the room and pretty much told me to leave but as I was about to get up and leave, one of the workers told me to wait for sedat. Long story short, sedat came and eventually sent me to get a cat scan.

The next day I saw butcher halil buldu again with sedat and a few of the live life taller/crippled staff in the room. Butcher halil would not even look at me in the face nor speak in english so I could understand, he clearly hated me. But sedat explained that butcher halil buldu was willing to do an experimental surgery where he will heal my IT band. I expressed my skepticism at this, why hadn't he offered to me this surgery before if he knew how to do it? I mean he offered precise before offering this. But for a few brief moments I allowed myself to be fooled into thinking he could really heal my left leg, so I accepted and tried diffusing tensions between myself and butcher halil buldu by shaking his hand. Then went back to the hotel room. But as I thought about it more, how I could let him experiment in my leg, he butchered a surgery that he has done 4000+ times(supposedly), how could I trust him to perform a surgery he has never done? So I told them this and left

Butcher halil messaged me telling me how ungrateful I am and in the same text he admitted the surgery was just for aesthetics, he was not gonna repair my IT band but just make it look nice, camouflage it. Well good thing I left because I did not want to go through a surgery for aesthetics, I want a functioning IT band and unfortunately butcher halil buldu is too incompetent to fix. So now I am left crippled trying to find a doctor to heal my IT band if possible but if not I will have to lengthen my leg again until it adds resistance.

Anyways, this is the story of how he crippled me. From giving me infections, to leaving lose screws, to operating on me when I had an infection, it all spells incompetence. And I didn't even describe my experience while lengthening which just as bad.

But there's things such as:
he records you for his instagram, doesn't respect privacy, literally the only time you will see him after the surgery is when he wants a picture for his instagram
he only changed bandages every 3 days when I was there, now I believe it's even more rare making it easy to get infections
There is a hotel right next to his live life crippled building called Golden hotel(check google maps) full of people he crippled, on my way out yesterday I saw one going to the hospital. It's an every day occurrence for them to fk people up and ask them to go back to turkey, as if we all had unlimited money and time
The lies, sedat tells everyone their growth is too good, they must lengthen at 1.5mm, then on day 10th, he tells them they must lengthen faster at 2mm for 3 days so that the bone doesn't fuse. In reality they're just trying to get you out as soon as possible so they can bring in new patients to cripple


And these are just the things I remember. I would post screenshots of our conversations but I believe they have lawyers who will try to take them down so I will hold off on that for now

To summarize. Butcher halil wasted a year of my life, he tore my IT band apart, he gave me infection, left a loose screw and ultimately now I cannot walk properly, I have joint pain and cannot run. He made me waste thousands of dollars in time and flights. Ignored me, was extremely rude to me and finally when he realized I was going to post my story online he offered to do an experimental surgery on me that would camouflage my deformity

To all the people who are considering him due to the cost, DON'T. I wasted at least $50k just to get crippled and I will have to waste more moving forward to fix my leg. You will literally be saving money by going to Europe or Asia.

Look, if live life taller/crippled is offering "insurance" for life is because they need to. It is how they keep the people they cripple quiet, by promising to heal them, the people they crippled don't want to anger live life taller/crippled and lose hope at healing and this is the only reason stories like mine are not coming out every day

Wow this is terrible. Are you in the USA or Europe? fk their lawyers, what would they even do to you? Post their chats. If this happened to me, I would spam their contacts with bots and absolutely demolish them on social media.

Hope you get the help you need man!

Wow.....just wow.
Man, I feel so sorry for you. It must be agonizing not knowing if and when you're gonna fix that.

I agree with the guy above, if you aren't in turkey but instead in the US or Europe, don't worry about their lawyers. 

They can't do anything to you. And I don't think you're planning on doing anything else with them (I hope).

Good luck man, stay strong.

I'm not concerned about their lawyers, I'm concerned about them taking down the thread. Here are the last messages I shared with him. Notice the dates, he doesn't answer me until the end to offend me, throughout the year I kept sending them messages asking them what to do about my leg, if lengthening is the only choice, etc, he just ignored me. In the end he just wanted me to disappear and offered to camouflage my issue

Horrible man. So your IT band is over stretched. Do you think a doctor in the US could cut the IT band where it is overstretched and allow it to grow back to your current femur length now? That's the only option I see but of course I'm not a doctor.

Or if you are in Turkey I would recommend seeing Dr Metin Kucukkaya or what country are you in, sesrch for a renowned surgeon there?

They can do crap unless if a mod takes this down..
I hope you get well soon brother. Have you look in to any treatment for your leg by another surgeon?

Yes I will be looking for a surgeon here in the US to fix it. For sure halil couldn’t fix it. Like I said, in the last moment he offered to cut out a piece to make it look better which is very different from repairing it. If he was ethical he would have been honest with me and help me look for a surgeon but he couldn’t admit the mistake

He even tried saying the ball wasn’t caused by the IT band release but by the lose nail

Also, I forgot to mention, he blocked me in whatsapp which explains why more of the people he cripples don't speak up, he would just refuse them treatment so most people just stay quiet and put up with his incompetence passively to not anger him. I am lucky that I can pay another surgeon but most people who go to him can't, that's why they go to him

So imagine a situation where he tore a muscle, gave you infection, left a lose screw, caused non-union, etc and you have to go back to turkey to see if he fixes it. Well you can't post your story online because it would anger him and he would refuse treatment. If he does fix your issue, you're scared that you might need him 3-5 years down the line so you still don't post your story. This is one of the main reasons why stories like this aren't coming out every day. I know for a fact I'm not the only person he butchered but I'll let others speak for themselves if they ever have the guts. Also it's not true he has lengthened over 4k patients, he just says that number but where's the proof? He started with a turkish group of limblengthening surgeons that butchered too many people so it broke away a few years ago. He has no real training in osteotomies other than experimenting with people. Look at his credentials, zero training in osteonomies, the most he did was a deformity correction in 2020 and then he went on to start his own limb lengthening business, how could he have done over 4000 limb lengthening cases since then? But look for yourself, the butcher posted it publicly https://www.livelifetaller.com/en/k/dr-halil-buldu-hakkinda--4

He has a lot of patients from asia and those patients struggle to heal, that is, they get non-union, different diet I imagine but idk. So the question is why does he keep taking patients who he knows won't heal? Why doesn't he ask them to distract slower at the very least? Because of money, he cannot resist turning down a patient who is not a good candidate because of money. And so he has tons of people who suffer from non-union, tons of people whose muscles he tore, tons of people with infections he can't heal and tons of people with issues he can't even diagnose.


I can't see any of the pictures, did you delete them ?

No I did not, I can see them from my end. Does anyone know why this could be? I used postimage to host them

I’m so sorry this happened to you. Don’t give up on hearing your bone/ soft tissue. There are incredible surgeons out there and the body is very resilient. I’d do a ton of research on good surgeons, I think you can improve. Good luck brother!

Thanks, I think you're right. Originally I thought shrinking the IT band was impossible because he told me so but I'll be consulting different doctors to see what they say. I did consult an american doctor when I had an infection and he turned me away which is why I ended up going back to turkey but there has to be some surgeons in america who will look at my case

hey,have you planned on where youre going to fix it?

I'm gonna consult a few different surgeons and see what they say. It is not normal for a surgeon to overly release your IT band with an infection so you can imagine this is a pretty rare case.

Is he that bad? Isnt he the more famous one over there?

He's famous because of his social media campaign but yeah he's as bad as it gets. Like I said, half of his patients get infections that's why he gives out "insurance." It's not insurance, it's just that he gives half of his patients infections and to keep them quiet he offers to fix it. You can see his "insurance" as "look we know you'll probably get an infection but we'll fix it, please don't post about it online." But of course, he doesn't run any tests to check what type of infection it is if any, he just gives you antibiotics and sends you away. I'm not the only person he doesn't answer to by the way, he ghostes everyone.

Again, he operated on me with an infection and waited for puss to come out to pay me any attention, he left 1/4 of my bone with no bone and tore an important band, to top it all off he left a lose screw which caused a great deal of inflammation on me and was rude when I went to turkey so he could fix it. Now that I went back to turkey again to get his opinion on my leg that isn't healing and I have pain on, he was extremely rude again and insulting, not even listening to me describe my issue before saying it's not his problem.

He operates on 3-5 people a day and drinks tons of coffee and redbull to stay awake(maybe he also takes drugs but I'm not sure of this). If you trust someone to be able to do perform surgeries when he's only awake because of coffee and redbull then you're a fool.

Are the patients at Golden hotel deliberately kept seperate from current patients? How many people who had been crippled do you estimate there are as a percentage of his patients?

Yes they are kept separate to not scare new patients but also because they want the space, hence why they make patients lengthen at 2mm

I estimate 50%, I stayed with another guy, we both had complications. Out of the people I know only one didn’t have complications. The guy I stayed with got some other desease from the metals and also a lose screw, he also had to fly back to turkey. I forgot the name of her desease but the metal the butcher halil put inside was causing inflamation, butcher halil didn’t have any approach to him other than replacing the metals even though he didn’t have infection. It’s the only thing he knows how to do, his so called insurance amounts to that, putting the frame back on your legs and replacing the recycled metal he used on you once it starts causing problems. So many people with permanent muscle issues. I am frankly a good case, there’s a lot worse than me. They don’t post because they’re embarrassed and scared

I be would like to add, the surgery is extremely painful. I’m not counting the people who choose to stop lengthening early or who just didn’t lengthen as people with complications.

I don’t want to talk about some of the cases because it’s not my case and I don’t want to give wrong information in case he tries suing and to respect other people’s privacy but I know many other cases where people has to stay in the golden hotel for longer than they lengthened

It does make you wonder just how many people have had bad results not just with this surgeon and don't speak up due to fear. It is admirable to do this for other members of the forum.

Thanks and keep in mind I didn’t even get to the half of it. I merely wanted to write the surgical mistakes he did, there was a lot of other issues. I met a few people and there was no one who didn’t complain

It does make you wonder just how many people have had bad results not just with this surgeon and don't speak up due to fear. It is admirable to do this for other members of the forum.

Like I wrote above, at least 50% of people get infections and other complications. Butcher halil Buldu is famous throughout the world by other orthopedics because his patients end up going to orthopedics throughout the world to get fixed out. In my case I might not be able to get fixed up but I hope I can at least warn others.

Whoever bumps into this thread please feel free to post it elsewhere, old forums, etc so world spreads about this butcher

I don't understand how Dr. Halil Buldu can live with himself crippling people. Unethical and thank you for sharing. Hope you recover soon

I don't get how he has so many patients. Is he the cheapest LL surgeon or just slick marketing.

Could you give us reasons why a lot of the doctors in the US refuse to give treatments for your case?

Cheap and slick marketing. When he meets you he’ll be nice then he’ll disappear, he won’t even answer his phone

I’m going to one to see my IT band, he didn’t refuse me for that. I was talking about when I had an infection, I went to an orthopedic and he didn’t want to see my case, he asked me to go to a research university because he wasn’t qualified. I think they are scared of lawsuits or it’s just too much trouble for them

I went to the ER too, they saw the infection and didn’t want to cure it. They just gave me antibiotics and told me to find an orthopedic. If you have an infection I would recommend to go to a university otherwise it will be hard to find an orthopedic who wants or can take on your case

I also went to see Dr Mahboubian for my infection(not IT band) and he was shocked. He treated me very well and referred me to an infection specialist(I went back to turkey instead). He also mentioned my IT band was weird but I didn’t ask about it too much cuz my main concerned was my infection, I thought I would end up amputated.

By the way, antibiotics are horrible for you, halil is very irresponsible for handing them out like nothing. He’s gonna end up creating a super strand and get people amputated

I was a little confused because my experience with repairing the infection went very well, I went to the ER a few times and they were able to schedule a same-day repair and it didn't cost me much.

Maybe it’s because I went at night, they just referred me to orthopedics to follow up with and had trouble getting an infection specialist to see me

This is so sad. This butcher should be sued and put out of practice!

I've beer about 3 years out of this forum. Even then we mentioned again to avoid places like Turkey and India for LL and also that external femur, even with LON, are always problematic and no respectable doctor do this way.
You took too many risks and things turned bad but congratulations for sharing your experience so others will avoid these doctors and anything else  except from fully internals for femurs.
