Hello, folks!
How ya'll doing ? I hope ya'll doing well !

So, I'll be leaving to the United States by the end of the year and will spend at least the next three years of my life living in this country.
I plan on getting Leg Lengthening surgery at some point during these three years and I think that the NuVasive PRECISE STRYDE method seems like the better way of getting it done!
I've been looking around and it seems like the cheapest place I could have this surgery done is at LimbPlastx in Las Vegas, Nevada, where I could get the surgery for U$75,000 ( as you can see here http://www.limbplastx.com/limb-lengthening-costs.html).

My question is, is there anywhere else I could this surgery for a cheaper price ? It could be inside or outside the USA - maybe in Europe or Asia idk.
But I've been thinking about somewhere I could get this surgery done with this method I mentioned and that would be safe to do it.

Thank you!

Giotikas seems to be the cheapest doctor - with diaries - for that.

If we don't have anything better in 5 years or be on the cusp of having that better alternative, then I might.

Just checked his website, the prices seems to be great!

Do you have any information on people who had it done at LimbPlastx in LV ?

I would rather do external or LON/LATN with an experienced doctor than to do STRYDE with a unknown cheap doctor. Though I think STRYDE is such a new technology that only experienced doctors get them at the moment(I am not sure on this. Don't source me on this. Ask other doctors or LL veterans for confirmation)

Hey,

I did my CLL at the Limbplastx center with Dr.D - I had this done last July 2018 and did 3 inches with the STRYDE nail. I had the first iteration of the STRYDE nail and like the second or third case of STRYDE done there. I did do very well though. Spent 2 weeks in Las Vegas and then went home. Took pain medications for about 3 weeks after the procedure. I flew back to Las Vegas every 2-3 weeks to see him for Exam and X-rays. I returned back to office type work at about 3 weeks with slight limp and occasional use of crutch, but eventually didn't have to use anything for certain work events. By the end of lengthening I was walking pretty well and by the Christmas holiday he let me do jogging and was about 90% of my normal. I would say I am about 100% of what I was, I have played some moderate sports without any trouble.
You would probably get the newest version of the nail that he said was re-designed because of the way the screw locks in the nail.
Overall I had a good experience and direct contact with the office at all times.

Anyways hope this helps
