Really?? How much did he say the ISKD cost then? Can you put me in touch with him? I don't know why he is not answering my emails... Does he have a phone number I can call? If what the lady at the hospital told me about him resigned one year ago is not true, then I prefer to contact him as his English seems be better.

Perhaps you could see doctor Donghoon lee too. His new price for LON is 38000 but you can stay in a hotel during lengthening.
It is 80$ per night whithout food.

Hi Paco1!
I emailed the nurse of New Born, and she replyed back stating that Il Hyung Cho no longer works there. She also asked me to pass on Dr. Chung-mu Im's personal email address [email protected] for you to contact should you have any questions or concerns.
I'm considering Dr.Lee as well now.

Quote from: ChrisIsaak on November 15, 2013, 10:12:11 AMThe information about ISKD and Fitbone on old forum are outdated. Both are currently in the market, the ISKD is reintroduced, and the problems fixed, yet it will only lengthen up to 5 cm's, just like it used to. The Fitbone is very reliable now, and used throughout Europe in many countries. I will be undergoing femur LL surgery with Fitbone soon (in Istanbul, Turkey).
I think Korea offers quite competitive prices.
According to Orthofix's official site, the femoral model of the ISKD is capable of lengthening up to 8CM. I wonder if New Born Orthopedics offers this model.
"ISKD is designed to lengthen a prescribed distance and then stop. ISKD lengtheners will distract a maximum of either 50 or 80 mm, depending on the model chosen. Thus the precise amount of lengthening required, the maximum starting length and fully distracted length of the ISKD must be determined prior to surgery in order to permit selection of the correct model of ISKD"
