I'm convinced that opting for the LON-method is the way to go in my case because of the reasonable cost, however I'm having trouble finding a good doctor that I can trust. Of the ones based in Turkey I've heard of Op. Dr. Hüseyin Kavak from wannabetaller.com, but researching him can't seem to find anything whatsoever, furthermore I've heard that wannabetaller.com isn't trustworthy whatsoever. I've also heard of Op. Dr. Halil Buldu, who seemed to be at least somewhat trustworthy; he's appeared multiple times on Turkish TV apparently and he's got some patients online I heard, but when visiting the location of his workplace on google maps I found it riddled with 1-star reviews. So again I don't know what to do.

My budget is around 20,000 euros (22,600 usd), and this is for LON-lengthening on both femurs. Can anyone recommend me a somewhat reputable doctor in either Turkey or Europe?

There is one doc in Turkey called Yuksel Yurtas, seems good I have seen videos of his patients in youtube, he is from Turkey. Another option but in Brazil is Richard Luzzi seems also good.

Hi, the price may be good but the method is not safe. Thnk twice and speak with a few doctors.

Why would you say it's unsafe?

Is it awful just pain-wise or in complication-potential/scars? I thought the scars were minimal

I stumbled across him, but prices are mentioned nowhere and he still has STRYDE mentioned on his site as a possibility, even though it's been recalled.

Dr. Leonid Solomin and Dr. Kulesh are going to be your best bet (that's who I'll be lengthening with).

Lon on femus is really not a good idea cuz your femurs will be withstanding the gravity induced from a higher vertical distance to the ground than that on your tibias.
