Are Becker and Giotika equally good?
« on: April 14, 2023, 12:42:06 PM »

Basically, I will be doing the surgery soon. I have done consultations with Becker and Giotikas.
Right now Im more leaning towards dr Becker, mostly becouse of the Betzbone nail. Nut I still have doubts, mostly becouse of Dr Beckers backround on seemingly unrelated fields of plastic surgery.
Do you guys think that Becker is as adequate as a professional orthopedic surgeon (like Giotikas)?
And also doyou consider them to br 2 equally good options overall, or do you strongly prefer one to another?

Sorry that I never answered your direct question, I guess the lowlife wolf who doesn't have a life took the attention. I don't know Becker and haven't heard of multiple succesful cases of him, like I have with dr. Giotikas, maybe search the forum, to see if you can find any. Dr G is cheaper and offers G-nail which is pretty much the same thing as Betzbone that allows you so weightbear. I have heard tho that some patients have easier time clicking with Betzbone, but maybe it's a individual thing.

Either way I think I'm personally sticking with precice even tho it ain't weightbearing, for these reasons:

1. it's fda approved and used all over the world, which isn't the case for the other nails mentioned.

2. They have the reverse future if a non union should happen (unlikely in the femur, but still).

3. According to dr. G the pain level with doing G-nail /betzbone is about 30% higher than with precice (the surgery is already painful with precice...)

4. Precice is cheaper and according to most surgeons like mahbouhian, Dr lee, etc better...

5. the lengthening mechanism is wireless and magnetic which makes it alot easier with precice than clicking with Gnail /betzbone which can be troublesome according to many diarys on this forum.

Yeah I agree. Can’t imagine having to do the clicking thing. Especially when some people say it can be harder on one leg, accidentally be too much on another leg etc. sounds almost barbaric.

Do you know how it works after lengthening with non-weight bearing, Viking? Do you just have to be patient with consolidation before walking again, and then after 2 years or so they remove the rods & nail?

Throughout the lengthening phase, you use a walker around where you live and use a wheelchair for longer distances. During the consolidation phase you gradually start to weight bear more, which usually leads to full weight bearing 4-6 months after lengthening. The rods usually come out a year or so after the lengthening.

Becker looks better than him, even though he has fake diaries and tries to advertise. It would be more accurate to compare giotikas with Egyptian-Iranian doctors.

He works under Betz though, and as far as I'm aware he's an above average surgeon. I personally think Becker is a good option for people who want a weight-bearing nail and/or don't want to spend 70k+ for this surgery. He's definitely not the best, but I wouldn't rank him so low.

The guy literally specialized in the field of limb lengthening and did study of human medicine at the Albert-Ludwigs-University in Freiburg im Breisgau for 7 years lol.

My backup plan was Giotikas, no biggie. Maybe we should form an exclusive club on this forum, hand out certificates, and let only the chosen docs do the surgery, huh? I'm just dying to know how many peeps here dissing docs actually have the brains to judge 'em, for real.

Now I understand why people call you Dr Becker's wife... @Charizard and @Bodybuilder are people I respect on this forum. It's obvious you don't like people who tell the truth.

I'm leaving the posts up in hopes that Giotikas will see them and sue.
