Quote from: musicmaker on April 04, 2017, 12:21:24 AMTake into account that Precise has also failed in some cases, like in Penguinn's.


Which he got replaced immediately

Quote from: bander72 on April 04, 2017, 04:04:58 AMYou defend mongeal way too much and on points that are not true. Precise may have had some failures but it is still a far more superior nail to fitbone and as bodybuilder said a doc that sees a lot of these failures should stop using  the device. Your worshiping of mongeal is like that other patient that said that mongeal was better than paley or rozbruch.


That's monegal patients for ya. But if you dare to say something bad about him almost whole triggered army will come after you.

Yes and I don't see other doctor patients  coming out of the wood work like they do, almost like a cult.

We all know that Precise is better than Fitbone. Also, we should suspect that Dr Monegal actively "encourages" his patients to advertise for him in this forum. This doctor is probably good or at least average but this is clearly a business for him (as for all others), that's why he omits information about complications or downplays them.

I doubt that Precise and Guichet nail are better than Fitbone, because my doctor, Dr. Monegal, told me that Fitbone is superior to Precise and far superior to Guichet nail. In fact, the doctor told me that he was incentivised by Precise do use their nail but chose not to, due to the nail inferiority.
I agree with Musicmaker and Auron (full disclosure: they are my friends) that Dr. Monegal is doing a fantastic job. So if at all we might pya more to say "thank you".
I am not sure about Fitbone, maybe the nail is really good. But of course, even if the manufacturer of a nail has done everything correctly and has indeed a low failure rate, they would still be liable in those cases that a failure occurs.

Of course your Dr who uses Fitnone won't admit he uses an inferior nail. Fitbone malfunctions more than Precise, Precise is FDA approved and is used by the top LL doctors in the world as we ALL know. Do you admit that Dr Monegal actively encourages patients to advertise for him? We all know he was one time very active here, constantly arguing with many trolls, etc. Would you expect that kind of behavior from Paley? Rozburch?

How do you know that fitbone malfunctions more than precise? Any official proof?

When we say that fitbone is better than precise we are simply giving our opinion. If I thought othetwise I'd had gone with precise. I do want the best choice for my legs.

Also, I don't know about the other patients but I don't discuss forum matters with my doc and if I see someone accusing him with false statements its just natural that I  defend him, after all, he has done a fantastic job with my legs so far and not many patients around the world can say the same of their doctor.

If by any chance or at any given time I think that my doctor is not capable of doing it's job correctly I can switch to any other doctor at my own free will.

It is impossible to get definite proof. Because the company controls which doctors do the surgery and therefore also all information regarding outcomes (publication bias). Furthermore, Precise is available all over the world and information regarding this nail is free and more transparent.

Guys I know I can't back up what I'm about to say, and I don't have definite proof. However, at least listen to this. People close to the patients of Dr Monegal have told me he "forces" them to advertise for him because they are living in his residence. DO be very careful with this doctor.

The creator of this thread has way too much time on  his/her hands

I would not  trust their opinion too much. At the same time,  Musicmaker's  opinion  on this matter is totally worthless.  Not even sure why she posts as it    looks as if Monegal sent her here.  Musicmaker, your posts only hurt Monegal

My experience with  Monegal has  been pretty positive.  That being said, I would not choose the Fitbone.  My opinion  is solely based on the nail
