Quote from: OGfivesevener on April 19, 2019, 05:34:09 PMIndeed, I'm not sure how to feel about this.

Also, they asked me something and I just wanted to pass it along. Let me know if there's a method of contact you'd like me to provide for them. Or, if you'll just reach out to them.

I'm just passing this along...

We were wondering who we should contact about cleaning up our profile on the limblengtheningforum. We wanted to edit and change some things on the site and wanted to ask you how we can do so!

Hi, I was also considering CLL with Dr. Mahboubian, but your quote definitely worries me. Can I ask where Dr. Mahboubian (or his team) said that?

Hey guys I think it's just some miscommunication. I hadn't thought of it negatively when I read the email from the office. My impression was they wanted to contact admin to clear up or update info on his office, services, prices, etc. Exactly what details I don't know. But, I don't think they would slip something to a random prospective patient that they wanted to somehow do a cover up or something.

I also got clarification that it's an additional $5k per Stryde nail based on the last set of prices I posted.

Plus, I'm not sure what they'd need to cover up anyway. Just clarify and update is my guess.

Hi OGfivesevener
Although I am still confused about Dr. M's price, $5000 more for Stryde seems to be a common thing.  Paley also asked $5000 more for Strdye. But I think this 5K is really worth it.  So at least Dr. M does not charge unreasonable Stryde as compared to Precice.

Below is a quote from Dr. Mahboubian's office:

Dr. Mahboubian is NOT a M.D. (Medical Doctor)
Dr. Paley, Dr. Rozbruch, Dr. Debiparshad are all M.D.

Dr. Mahboubian is NOT board certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery (ABOS).
Dr. Paley, Dr. Rozbruch, Dr. Debiparshad are all board certified by the (ABOS).

Dr. Mahboubian attended one of the lowest rated medical schools in the United States. Western University in Pamona, California.
Dr. Paley- University of Toronto- One of the best in Canada
Dr. Rozbruch- Cornell University- One of the best in U.S.A.
Dr. Debiparshad- McGill University- One of the best in Canada

Dr. Mahboubian completed his residency at Peninsula Hospital in New York. The hospital was closed down by a court order. I'm NOT kidding.
Dr. Paley- Johns Hopkins University Hospital- One of the Best in U.S.A.
Dr. Rozbruch- Cornell/Hospital For Special Surgery- One of the Best in U.S.A.
Dr. Debiparshad- McMaster University Hospital- One of the Best in Canada

Dr. Mahboubian uses ridiculous, laughable, sleazy marketing tools. Look at his website, it's a joke. Especially the fee E-Books.
Dr. Paley wrote the most authoritative book on limb lengthening. Dr. Paley is the creator of the LON procedure. Dr. Paley is an advisor to NuVasive & helped develop the STRYDE nail.
Dr. Rozbruch wrote the second most authoritative book on limb lengthening. Dr. Rozbruch is the creator of the LATN procedure. Dr. Rozburch is an advisor to NuVasive.
Dr. Debiparshad co-authored two separate peer reviewed published papers with Dr. Paley.

Dr. Mahboubian is NOT upfront about his prices and gives different prices to different people. Varying as much as $40,000.
Dr. Paley, Dr. Rozbruch, Dr. Debiparshad all post their prices on their website.

Lol!!!   Trying too hard there to make Dr. Mahboubian look bad.  I always wonder why?   Just one of those bitter individuals there Leggs???

I can say to anyone who is considering using Dr. Mahboubian, that he is a standup surgeon.  My surgery was smooth, and my experience with him very pleasant.  He helped me fulfill my dream to become taller.  Went from 5’6” to 5’9”.


I know each of these patients below and have met them in person except with InFullStryde, who I’ve only spoken to by phone. 

Anyone that needs first hand experience info, contact me via PM.

Dr. Mahboubian Marketing: Makes used car and snake oil salesman look good. No professional and self respecting surgeon would ever use such quack gimmicks.

Edit Post

Leggs is offended by Dr. Ms marketing !!!   How fragile...

Poor guy.   Focusing on such petty things.

Look at the outcomes of the diaries above with Dr M.  and think about Karma a little.  The man is an awesome surgeon!!

“Interesting how you respond. You never challenge me on the facts of my posts. It's very telling to anyone capable of critical thinking. They would automatically say to themselves why doesn't LAGrowin bring up those facts, he's purposely avoiding them. Thank you for enhancing the points i'm making. Continue what you are doing, it only works against your objective.

Game theory is something you should study as you are very poor at playing. That's why Mahboubian's marketing appealed to you, that style of marketing works supremely well on the sub par IQ level population...”


Why didn’t you keep your messages on the public forum?


Lol.....   So now all Mahboubian patients are sub par IQ?!!      I personally never saw his marketing prior to my surgery, but yes perhaps I am sub par IQ,  but now with no height issues or complications thanks to Dr. M.

The important fact that I’m challenging you on, here publicly, because of my first hand experience, is that Dr. Mahboubian IS a competent, honest, and experienced surgeon who has performed hundreds of these procedures. He has helped many change their lives whether it be for deformity or CLL purposes.   Don’t make him out to look like some shady car salesman because of his offices marketing.   

I don’t think anyone who is serious about LL is here to talk and discuss proper marketing. We are here to find USEFUL and PERTINENT info about QUALIFIED LL surgeons.

Don’t be an ASS and discredit a hard working surgeon with your BS, and furthermore say that Dr. M. patients are low IQ.    Grow up and grow some.   Is it possible you’re an unhappy troll with no intention of ever getting LL?    Seems like it to me.

Lastly, keep it public.  Don’t be a wuss and PM me your BS.

I am a small business owner with a good reputation,  it is way too easy for people like you to sit behind their keyboard and discredit people and professionals unfairly. 

What’s your point or goal???

Leggs I don't understand why you're so triggered and against Mahboubian, as far as I'm concerned he's a top 3 doctor in the WORLD, also I don't know why you make Debiparshad (might've misspelled) to be a better doctor than him when we, or at least I personally never even knew of him until last month when a couple guys mentioned they'll be having their surgery with him this summer, and I've been on the forum for 5 or so years, he has not one single diary lol... Mahboubian has several successful diaries, and not a failed one.
I will be doing my surgery with him in a month or two god willing with full confidence I'll be getting top notch service, and I'm glad I'll be paying the new prices, saving myself about 40K from what I was expecting to pay earlier this year.

”You're obviously not very intelligent. Good luck in life with your lack of critical thinking and decision making skills. You have my sympathy.”


Lol !!     Damn!    Those critical thinking skills......

How YOU determine that I am not very intelligent by exchanging a couple of posts on a LL forum with me is truly beyond me,  BUT makes your superior intelligence very obvious.   Lol.
