Femur +6cm with Dr. Betz

Edit Post

Hello,

Just had my initial consultation with Dr. Betz this week.
I'll have the surgery sometime in September (in fact Betz is full until Feb 2022 but a slot might open up in September hopefully.)

I'll write my journal in this thread. I'm 25 yo, 173cm, and will lengthen my femurs by 6-7 cm.

So far, I was surprised by how little Dr. Betz did NOT emphasize the importance of pre op flexibility, compared to Guichet who is crazy about it (I had another consultation with Guichet a few months ago but decided to go with Betz because of recent stories I've read).

Best

Thanks for the kind words mate ! 

This ITB and wide leg issue is scaring me a bit. I'm wondering if I should ask Betz to release it during the initial surgery.
I'll take any tips or pre-op exercises you have for this though.

Thanks

Wow ! Did you go with Betz ?
I'm going to stretch the hell out of my ITB before the operation ...

Hey, my Femur surgery with Betz is scheduled for the end of January.
I want to do it earlier though, so if anyone is scheduled earlier and want to postpone, and switch with me, PM me.

Thanks

Hey folks,

my surgery with Dr. Betz is scheduled for the very beginning of December.

If anyone has a date with Betz before December and wants to switch with me, I'm open to it! DM me.
