There are 3 members on the forum who have had surgeries with Dr Parihar. All 3 members appear to have had imperfect osteotomies.

In all these x-rays the osteotomy is somewhat imperfect. There are fragments of the bone detached. You can even see some deviation of axis.
Here is an example of a clean osteotmy by another doctor https://imgur.com/a/E2Pxc
I think Dr P was able to eventually correct all this and his patients have recovered fully, but could it have been done better right from the first?
Is it better to go with a doctor who does volumes of cosmetic limb lengthening instead of someone who does deformity correction mainly? There are some things unique to cosmetic limb lengthening like the amount of stretching involved, the type of full osteotomy needed and low margin of error tolerable.
This is just an opening of a discussion and by no means an attempt to discredit any doctor.
