One more stryde diary with a new doctor. Very good.
Dr. Debiparshad - Stryde Femurs
I'm currently focusing my research for LL with Dr. Debiparshad so am really interested in your journeys. Good luck to both of you, Dr. D seems to have a great reputation in orthopedics medicine. I am currently studying pt and working pt, have almost $85k saved so hopefully by the end of this year or early 2020 will have my first consultation.
Two things that stand out for me right now are
~ 1. no patient diaries on this forum (hopefully coming soon :-) and
~ 2. that Dr. D lists his actual surgery time as only taking approx. one hour for STRYDE/PRECICE on limbplastx site whereas both Drs. Mahboubian and Paley list this surgery on their respective sites as taking approx. four hours. Hmmm.
Who is that Dr? Which country ?
Andwhats the cost ?
only someone really stupid will go to this doctor at this price, or else these people are fake trying to promote this doctor. There are many better knwon choices with proven results at lower prices (e.g. Dr. M, Dr. Parihar, Dr. giotikas, Dr. Donghoon) and many top ones at similar prices.

I wasn't expecting the authority on intelligence to chime in on this thread with a list of knwon choices, but thank you. 
In all seriousness, my surgery date is less than a month away and I will be starting a diary the day of the surgery. I'll tell it like it is - the good and the bad. I have no incentive to drive patients to him.
The decision was simple for me - I wanted to do it in America where my insurance and the strict American regulatory environment work to my advantage. I know I'm paying a premium for that but in the long run it's worth it after factoring in cost and convenience of living. That's before even considering the possibility of complications arising, in which case I sure as hell would rather be in America. Of the American doctors, I reached out to Paley, Dr. M, and Dr. D.
Dr. D was cheaper and was way more responsive than the others. He also is closer to home and allows lengthening at home. I'm sure the others are very competent but I went with my gut.
I believe you will be fine with Dr D.
How you will do your pt at home?

Only someone really stupid would say that only someone really stupid would go to this doctor.
Dr. Debiparshad is a M.D. who completed medical school at McGill University & completed his orhtodpedic residency at McMaster University, two of the best universities in Canada. He completed a limb lengthening fellowship with Dr. Paley & a second fellowship in spinal surgery at Harvard. Dr. Debiparshad is board certified by the America Board of Orthopedic Surgery & co-authored two peer reviewed papers with Dr. Paley.
As for fake patients trying to promote this doctor. Highly unlikely, they are far more likely to be real patients who are intelligent enough to calculate Dr. Debiparshad's value on a risk/reward ratio.
Something tells me you lost concentration and got confused when you had to read the words "intelligent" "calculate" "ratio".
me personally as a young (22) intelligent business man I don't care that the doctor went to the most prestigious schools... I'd choose Mahboubian even if I lived walking distance to Dr. D's facilities, why? simple... Experience and proof... experience over book studied always, in whatever field you put that theory on... Dr. D has no diaries or much experience seeing how he finished his studies not too long ago 2-3 years, not saying he can't be another great doctor but as of now, I'd consider his first CLL patients lab rats.
