What do you think about doctors who make limb lengthening public?

Edit Post

It's usually Dr Debiparshad but occasionally Mahoubian comes up. These guys are all on youtube, tik tok and mainstream tv and news articles promoting limb lengthening. What do you think about it?

I've heard he is a bad surgeon that's why he does some much advertising.

I also remember that when Paley was interviewed on cyborg4life channel, he said that he is lying about the actual number of patients he actually operated on

I hope that this becomes mainstream, because the prices could be lower (maybe not in USA) and the safety could be better. I don't want a society where science and technology is reserved only for rich people.

My opinion, I'd take them less serious than the mature names in the field like Paley and Rozbruch. Insta and tiktok are platform mostly for teenagers showing off meaningless videos. I think all doctors in the US are competitive but advertising on such platforms make them look, well, a little irrelevant.

I second it. There was a case reported on this forum that this doctor (may have) authorized nail removal for some patient a bit too early, resulting in him snapping his femur just few days or few weeks after removal. When he came back for emergency resolution, the doctor - was on vacation I think - left him frustrated without response for >24h. His inflamed femur looked horrifying..
