Hey Android! Thanks for the thread on Giotikas. What's the cost if you want Dr. Gioitikas to pre-emptively do these things up front before lengthening:
1. Nerve decompression for femurs
2. Nerve decmpression for Tibias
3. Gastro recession
4. IT band release
5. Hamstring biceps release (I heard this was a thing, a bit rarer?)
Giotikas does this? Is it the right way?
Hey Android, I heard that for staying 7-8 months for doing two lengthenings that a traditional lease might be cheaper than Air BnB. What are your thoughts on which place to stay at in Athens if you are doing two internal lengthenings?

Stop with all the negativity on Dr. Giotikas. I too considered Dr. Donghoon of Korea and Dr. R, Dr. P, Dr. M & Dr. D of the US before finally choosing Dr. G after all my research and Thank God I did. Not sure what the outcome will be if I didn’t choose Dr. G, but I’m more than HAPPY with my results and recovery and so are all the patients I met in Athens. In fact a few of us still keep in contact by WhatsApp since we are international patients.
Before leaving Athens, I have met 3 patients that did Stryde on their TIBIAS and they are walking and recovering nicely. Reading information on this forum is one thing but meeting patients face to face is another. So before bashing a doctor, go meet that doctor and their patients and your worries and whole view will change.
Dr. Donghoon is a good doctor also and good luck with your planned surgery when he get Stryde. Start a dairy when you finally actually get the surgery, anything before the surgery are just talk.

@Dr. X-ray More - Blind trust??? Do you know the meaning of putting those two words next to each other? Please clarify “it is called blind trust,” since it does not make any sense regarding that post. Sound kind of ignorant to make a statement like that.
My bad not being nice here, let me rephrase not so smart, not smart at all Dr. X-ray More.

x-ray tell the too many things. this is my answer.
Hi, are there LL patients here operated by this doctor? I'm considering him for LL nail removal. However, I would like to know some first hand experiences.
Hi All
I read this lengthy forum from Page 1 to 8.
Some said they had scheduled the operation with Dr. Giotikas and followed with a lot of debates.
To date, I didnt see any real feedback from the people who have gone thru the operation with him.
I did LATN Tibia (external + nail ) with him earlier this year (Feb 2021). DM me if you have any questions
Hi
Will PM you
Thanks!
