Quote from: overandover on May 27, 2024, 02:21:24 PMDo you think it's safe to do gnail with giotikas? There are several successful diaries and not that much of a scope to fk things up? My other option is precice/fitbone with Birkholtz but I'd prefer wait bearing nail. This is for tibias I've already got my femurs done with precice 2.2 and that went really well.

There’s no point for weightbearing nail. You’re not gonna be doing much walking either way, I had a weightbearing nail and the only walking I could tolerate was to the restroom.

Either way stay away from Giotikas. Cyborg4life doesn’t recommend him and I definitely don’t recommend him, Giotikas is on the same level as the Turkish butchers. I was both their patients and I regret it everyday, every time I bend my knee and get pain I curse Giotikas.

You don’t want a surgeon who’s either too incompetent or too arrogant to accept his mistakes. And both Yuksel and Giotikas are on the same level of incompetence. Don’t make the same mistake I and others did my friend.

I just got a DM from someone else a week ago saying he had the same issue I did with Giotikas. He’s not a good surgeon. You risk your life and your legs.

You get what you pay for! Dr Giotikas may be a trauma doctor which any Joe Schmoe in Turkey is also. However if you have a complication can Dr Giotikas correctly diagnose you and correct it? Definitely not!

That’s the difference between orthopedic trauma doctors (Giotikas, Yurttas, and Turkish butchers)

and orthopedic limb lengthening specialists (Assayag, Paley, Conway, etc)!

Any joe shmoe orthopedic trauma doctor can put a nail in your bone!

However an orthopedic limb lengthening specialist is going to make sure that nail is PROPERLY put in and also correctly know how to diagnose complications!

Is that a risk you’re willing to take by going to the Turkish butchers or Giotikas? You decide!

Sure man:

Here are some examples of complications/failed surgeries Dr Giotikas has given patients:
 

FIRST case :

Patient DMs me and says he had the same issue. Dr Giotikas claimed to fix valgus and apex anterior deformity, but it’s clear from visual and x ray, he hasn’t:

https://ibb.co/CKj7FPv


SECOND case (ME) :
I went to Dr Giotikas to fix my own valgus/procurvatum deformity, Dr Giotikas claimed he did, but Dr Assayag showed me on x-ray that absolutely nothing was corrected:

Dr Giotikas claims this is perfectly normal and straight and no deformity present and trash talked American surgeons when I showed him I still had an issue! LOL:

https://ibb.co/2jJK89X


THIRD case :

Another user goes to Giotikas to fix procurvatum deformity, says its clear from standing and from x-ray that the deformity wasn’t corrected.

FOURTH case :


User gets fibula non union due to Giotikas not properly fixating ankle bone, risk of osteoarthritis, and needs multiple correction surgeries:

FIFTH case :

Giotikas patient has non union on femur due to bone cut and where the nail was inserted. 15:46

https://ibb.co/HzJQ9w9





SIXTH case :

Giotikas patient dies from LL:

32:45


SEVENTH case:

Protruding screw from G-Nail hurts patient in hip  (I had the same problem, with a protruding screw in my tibia from Giotikas. Extremely painful) (search up Cyborg4life and Paley interview) 01:31:10:

https://ibb.co/FK1PsnW


It’s not just me, Cyborg4life doesn’t recommend Giotikas! He hid all the interviews with him! I can only warn you by giving my and others examples! Your choice is your own, whether you want to risk your legs to save money!

I share this information so the people here can be informed! I was once also under the impression that Giotikas was a good choice, but after my own experience and reading about others experiences, I cannot recommend him! I’ll make a full post on Giotikas soon!

Giotikas is an orthopedic trauma surgeon, NOT an orthopedic limb lengthening specialist! There is a huge distinction and skill/knowledge gap between the two!

The criminal Yuksel Yurttas continues advertising this procedure and continues to cripple and maim patients. This criminal doctor should be in jail! What type of medical standards are there in Turkey for this butcher Yuksel Yurttas to continue to operate? There should be something done against this butcher Yuksel! Do not go to Turkey and do not do surgery with butcher Yuksel if you value your legs! He has crippled more than 20+ people!

Butcher Yuksel Yurttas claims he's the best in Turkey and even the world. LOL. He is a butcher doing this surgery unchecked and without any consequences for crippling people as he has done his entire career. Do not do this surgery in Turkey and definitely do not do it with Yuksel Yurttas if you value your legs. He will leave you crippled and then walk off as he did to me.
