Hey man. Hope you're doing well. I am also considering doing the surgery in the UAE clinic and I wanted to ask where you're staying and also what your routine kinda looks like with going to PT and etc. I feel like when doing the surgery having some social interactions (preferably with other patients) would do good to keep your spirit up, or at least that's how I felt when I visited Becker's Rehab Clinic in Frankfurt. Anyway, hope everything continues smoothly, don't lose hope and hopefully we can meet in November/December.
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I'm currently staying at a hotel near corniche, but hotel prices are high since it's tourist season, so would recommend doing it during non-peak seasons. The drive is half an hour to PT, I do PT for an hour(or 30 mins of hydrotherapy), mainly strecthing and cycle machine, then head back. So that takes up my morning. It's definitely best to be able to talk and make friends with the other patients while you're here, I'm very fortunate to have another patient in the same hotel as me, so I go to his room to chat every few days. Other than that, I'm able to talk with the other paitents while waiting for PT at the hospital, but interaction time is very limited. So if you have a friend or family going with you that would also help a lot. Looking forward to seeing you too, let me know if you have any other thoughts on your mind
Precice Femur LL with Dr Paley UAE Burjeel medical center
Update: 16 days into lenghtening. Did an X ray 2 days ago and was told everything is good so far. Post op pain has completely subsided, however muscle tightness and soreness from lenghtening is coming in, though not nearly as much as post op pain. Knee soreness has been really bad, causing me to wake up a lot at night, but I figured out that if I stretch my quads a lot, it relieves the pain so much, and it would likely help with lengthening down the road too, so I'm gonna make sure to do that a lot.
It's crazy to think I'm almost a third of the way there (including the 7 days of rest post OP), Thanks to everyone who wished me well, I will continue to keep going and provide further updates.
Just wondering, does they talk arabic in paley UAE?
what was your old height and what your aim to?
Wish you the best!

I believe it was mainly Paley doing the surgery, with Robbins and Uglow to assist him. The physio is absolutely amazing, very professional and the hydrotherapy is so beneficial to your movement. Haven't heard anything about the max, though from looking at the past few years it seems likely more delays will occur. Thank you and wish you the best on your journey too! You'll pretty much be 6'1 after lenghtening that's absolutely lifechanging!
Thanks for the response man! I heard that in Paley Institute in Poland its the European doctors who do the Surgery but if Robbins & Paley do that in the UAE institute then its amazing! They are one of the best in their field! And Paley Institute's Physiotherapy is the reason I am more inclined to get it done at their place.
Hello, how is your recovery from your limb lengthening surgery going?
Did you do it at Paley in Abu Dhabi? How is it there? Is it worse than the US headquarters?
Was your surgery performed by Dr. Paley or another doctor? Is the rehabilitation department there professional?
Update: Almost done with lengthening! Time goes by fast, seems like only a while ago when I first posted here. At around 7.7cm right now, feel significantly taller, and ready to start my new life. Can't say I've been the most productive during this period, as lonliness and boredom does settle in often, but Im happy to say I still got some work done and was able to call my friends quite a lot.
I'm very grateful for the patients I met here, as well as the amazing staff at the burjeel hospital, who were there to help me at every turn.
Well, I guess that's it, 3 months of lenghtening over, 1-2 months of consolidation to go, but I trust it'll pass by fast back at home. 0 regrets about my decision to do the surgery, and only positive experiences to come.
Could you tell me approximately how much this surgery cost in Abu Dhabi? If convenient, please provide more details. Thank you!
How much does a hotel there cost per month?
