I’m going to do it
« on: September 09, 2024, 10:56:12 PM »
I’m going to do it in the USA for sure and will update everyone with a diary.

Only one thing left is to decide which doctor. Can someone please list all USA doctors or link me to where they all are listed.

As of now 75% sure I’m going to do it in baltimore. I’m not interested at all in doing it with Oakley. Who else in the USA does it?

Debiparshad is in Las vegas
Mahboubian is in Los Angeles
Rozbruch is in NY (if I remember right)
Assayag is in Baltimore
Paley is in Miami

I really think Paley or Assayag are the best options, any of these dr will probably do a good job but Paley ofc is the OG, and assayag seems to present the best value. Ive heard bad things about Debiparshad before so im not sure about him but ive not heard anything bad about the others aside from Mahboubian being heavy on the marketing.

The only thing off putting is the website for them stating 2 inches is recommended only. Does anyone have experience with this “? What if I insist on 7 or 8 cm

I reached out to them and no response

2 inches is an absolute joke, not noticeable at all and won't improve anything. Also why are you required to state the amount you are going to lengthen? Aren't you in control of lengthening, they will do the surgery and then leave lengthening to you?

Ok so they do the surgery then I go home and continue lengthening ? I can disregard their advice and choose my own lengthening at my own risk right?

If that’s true I will continue with that office in baltimore

Isn't that how it always works? It is your money, your choice.

Update


registered nurse  in Baltimore got back to me, rude and not willing to answer any real questions. Basically wants you to show up in person and pay $600 for an appointment before they tell you any details. Not sure if I will continue to with them

It’s crazy how those people are allowed to rip you off that much for a consultation that doesn’t even last an hour.

A while ago, I looked into US limb lengthening doctors. They are all good.
But my understanding is Dr. Assayag offers the surgery at the cheapest price.

When i hear about rude nurses and secretary i get nervous and leave the place, because i prefer to avoid conflicts. They make BIG MONEY with this business, so FIRST they must be nice and helpful from the beginning to the end... not even a second rude !
I could do it in Canada with no problem, but doctor's secretary is rude and doctor is in very hurry all the time... so i dont like that !
I chose dr Ghokan and i never regret it. He talked with me in video conference for one hour, FOR FREE. He answered to all my questions and concerns and 2 weeks later i was in surgery room. Also, EVERYBODY there were nice and helpful, including in hotel.
So, go only when doctor is helpful and all people are nice... otherwise you go in depression !

Man, in your place i would do it in South Africa. Is cheaper and better treated overall than US.
For me was too far away and too expensive... thats why i chose Turkey.

Yeah man when you hear stuff like this its an early warning sign for the bad stuff that might come down the road. I would suggest Birkholtz in South Africa or Assayag in Baltimore.

Lol weird, my first time calling the number on their site and  Assayag picked up and talked to me a good while. I was pretty shocked he answered. Nurse probably was uninformed or reading the standard consultation price quote.
