Mehmet Kocaoglu and Metin Kucukkaya.
Both of the docs are as experienced as Giotikas and the others.
I'm pretty sure nothing would go wrong with Kucukkaya especially.

Lengthening period just an excitement and hope real results come after lengthening . How correct you were choosing a Surgeon and method
It is weird that I lengthened 6.4cms but when I measure my height I see that it only increased 4cms. And I am sure that I stand upright when I measure it. Is there anyone who has any idea about it?
You have completed lengthening (distraction) or still lengthening?.
Still lenghtening
You cannot measure your height exactly when you are standing with the device.
postural error and height difference between morning and evening
may be thses are the reasons .
My doctor measures the lenghtening from the inner side of bone not the outside (side of the fixator). Do you think it is correct bcs every xray I see in this forum are measured from the fixator side.
Hey Midguy
Just wondering what made you decide to have CLL with Dr. Mehmet Kocaoglu compare to the other CLL doctors in Turkey?
You are from Turkey and your insight on this subject will be very helpful to other members looking to do CLL in Turkey.
Looking forward in reading your updates.
Hi azman,
In Turkish forums Kocaoglu is the biggest name. There was tens of patients who adored him not only bcs of LL but other surgeries too. Then I looked his resume and I saw that he is the one that brought LL to Turkey. Also he is a fellow of Paley. So, for Turkey, He and Metin Kucukkaya were the only options for me to even consider getting surgery. In corona lockdown, Kucukkaya hadnt made surgeries, so It wasnt hard for me choose a doctor 
Yesterday, I was with the doctor. I am now at 6.5cm and continue to 8cm by turning three times a day which will end at 18 August, and everything is going smooth. I am in great condition thanks to Kocaoglu’s therapist Mr. Apelyan. I got 5 days in a week physiotherapy and for the last month it is 6 days in a week. Apelyan also worked with Paley thanks to Kocaoglu. If you ask me, both Kocaoglu and Kucukkaya are great and for Kocaoglu I can say that he has been making LL for 30 years and he is really confident in his job. When I went to talk to him, he was so calm that at that moment LL was like a hobby to him. So I went with him and I am happy with my choice for now.
