Quote from: TheRisingShorty on March 28, 2014, 03:52:02 AMThank you very much for posting this Kilokahn! Considering Dr Parihar's knowledge and experience in LL and trained by Dr.Paley, I believe that he is the best option for tibia LL in India. That is if you can cope staying in his hospital for a few days and then renting an apartment or hotel in Mumbai.   

I am keeping him as an option for tibia LL once I recover from my femur LL

I definitely agree that Dr. Parihar is the best option for CLL in India. Frankly I could care less about the look of the hospital because I would only be staying in it for a very short time and you can find nice quality hotels all over Mumbai. If I am able to arrange my stay in Mumbai, then if the consultation goes well I'm hoing with Dr. Parihar. There's another doctor in India who also trained under Paley that I'm going to meet, but I am not sure on him yet because limb lengthening is not his primary interest, though he does seem to have a considerable amount of knowledge in it.

Agree 100%. The man is clearly proficient in the art of Ilizarov. The hospital looks grimy but what doesn't in India? Even Paras is not as pristine as depicted in photo. I'm sure he utilizes sterility in his OT to such a degree that infection will not occur. If you're considering India, it's gotta be Dr. Parihar.

My friend in India told me the other day that he e-mailed Dr Paley asking him about what Indian doctor he should go to, and Dr Paley's reply was to go to either Dr Chaudhary or Dr Parihar, so apparently Paley would back Dr Parihar as one of the best surgeons for lengthening in India (kind of surprising he apparently said Dr Chaudhary is a good choice based on all we've heard, but I guess Dr Chaudhary is technically a good surgeon but his attitude about his patients is where the real problem lies.)

Here's a video with a part that shows Dr Parihar's opinion on post-operative weight-bearing. Clearly he thinks people overstate the importance of weight-bearing while distracting.

Part about weight-bearing starts at 4 minutes 37 seconds.

I had sent an email to Dr.Parihar asking him to elaborate on why he thinks full weight bearing during lengthening with ilizarov is a bad idea and his philosophy on touch down weight bearing, but I still have not received his reply.

In this video, Dr Parihar does say that people who weight bear on the first or second day of surgery still end up recovering the same time as a person who does touch down weight bearing. But is there any significant risk with full weight bearing with ilizarov/LON during lengthening besides pin bending? As far as I know, isn't the Ilizarov apparatus full weight bearing?

I'm considering Dr. Parihar to do nail rod in femur, however I gave him brief about my situation and asked him about the nail rod or plate fixation , and he said you have to visit me..
and Mumbai is so far from Delhi, I really don't want go there then he'll say what other dr recommend to keep the monorail, that would be a real waste of time and money,,

Quote from: Ohaimark on April 08, 2014, 05:45:19 PMYou should just go see Dr Sringari. He has the same skills as Dr Parihar and costs fraction of the price. Also you don't have to go all the way to a scary place like Mumbai.

Not even close.
