Hi Guys , so what do yall think is better doing as soon as possible with Giotikas because he’s very affordable or waiting through and saving more money to go with Dr Lee?

Do yall think the PT area & hygenic pool in Dr Lee’ s Hospital is way better than PT in athens?

Also a big problem i found regarding dr lee is his hospital is in the Middle of nowhere so no airbnb !! And transportation is soo expensive in korea,  and his hospital stays are crazy expensive so definitely Accomodation is an issue, like every Pt session you have to ride a 30min/1 hr ride to go to hospital.

Regarding athens i dont know whats up with this country like is it a third world country and whats the medical care rank there?

If you are doing femurs there are lots doctors to choose from
But if doing tibia, trustworthy is Dr Donghoon Lee only.

I think one major determining factor is price difference.  If you do Strdye, Dr. Lee is not significantly cheaper even compared to Dr. Paley.  Dr. M in LA and Dr. D in Vegas may be even cheaper than Dr. Lee for the Stryde.  If you do LON for tibias, Dr. Lee's price for the surgery seems to be reasonably cheap, which is about 30K in US dollars.  But you need to consider accomodation issue as you pointed out.   So I am not so sure whether Dr. Lee is a good choice for you.

Yeah the acccomodation is bad with dr lee.
But its even worse with the Dr in las vegas,because ill have to only stay in a hotel and the rates are crazy so ill end up paying 8,000$ ++ or something for hotel and transportation! Las vegas is a touristic place.

We still dont know how much he will charge for stryde!

Dr paley is like 100k! And thats without Accomodation so thats crazy expensive.
Dr M i dont like him as a Dr, and his staff seems rude.

Dr rozbruch in new york someone said he charges over 100k because i aint a us citizen....so he doesnt fit for sure, eventhough he looks like a really good doctor

I found the price in the Korean forum about Dr. donghoon is queit different from what I knew from his assistant. The price for foreign LLers would be expensive than native, almost 14K extra. It is so frustrated. Dr Lee Korea vs Giotikas? Comparison
