Planning for surgery in Jan 2022, Greece GNail Giotikas

Edit Post

Hey all,

Sorry for delayed response. I am good currently around 6cm lengthening. I have had few issues (not any major complications) and also busy with starting back in to my work so couldn't start on my diary. I will at some point do a write up about my experience and opinion about this option.

Thanks for getting back to us! What kind of issues have you had? Hope it continues to go well

Anyone have any thoughts on finding a good place to stay in Athens that is cheaper than Montaza hotel (default budget option with Giotikas)?

I tried putting on handicap filters on airbnb and it resulted in no searches, not sure what's my next best bet to find a place without stairs or other dangerous things

Isn't the Montaza Hotel package already inclusive of 2 daily meals and someone to help you click? That seems like a great deal for €1600 per month (or whatever it is)

Yeah come to think of it 55 euros *30=1650 euros per month + you get the nurse support + the hotel staff to help with other nonmedical things. I think I might bite the bullet of the cost and stay at Montaza. Anyone found anything so much cheaper that might be worth it?

Converting 1650 euros to USD its like 1800 USD per month. SO maybe total monthly costs will be 2500 USD

I think board costs a bit more though

"You will find below the prices for the room, We have to inform you that as long as you will use the wheelchair you need to stay at the handicap room.

The 10% discount is applied for stays more than two week on bb basis.

The price does not include the residence tax which is 1,50 euro per day

Wait   nevermind. That's 12 euros per meal it looks like so about 13 USD per meal which is alot. What are you guys going to do for meals?

I read in another user's diary that the €1650 was inclusive of meals and support for clicking. Maybe double check with them. But I imagine you will need to order your own groceries each week anyway, which would probably be €100 or less? Also factor in uber/taxis to and from the PT centre. (I'm guessing the hotel has its own gym so might be able to save a bit on that?)
