What's the deal with Dr. Guichet?

Edit Post

I figure I'll probably have to spend about 60,0000 euros when I add in living expenses and such. I'll probably due fine on the cybex test.

If its much more expensive than 45k euro like it sounds, thats probably very conservative estimate.

How much was it for just the surgery, nails, etc.?

Forget Guichet, Dr Paley is about 110 miles from where I am but the @$#! charges 80 freaking grand.

My understanding is that Paleys starting cost is around 80/85K....but many have told me he ends up costing close to 100K when all is said and done.

What has killed me is the cost of living in London, which is very high. I know Guichet plans to operate on more and more patients here, so you may get hit with that too. Still not as extensive as Paleys "all-in" cost, but still very high and climbing.

My saving grace is still being able to get paid while I do this, and insurance will reimburse some of the various tests and my parents are gonna help a bit. Brings it down to around Dr M's base cost lol

If doctor Guichet really does start to be a little bitch about his prices, people are just going to start going to India for PRECICE lengthening. Plenty of doctors, such as Parihar and Suhas Shah, charge half of what these western doctors charge--and they are just as good.

Trust me bro...I know how you feel about the money aspect. No one wants to drop this kinda dough on a plastic surgery. And I'm older than you, and while still in good financial shape, by no means rich.

But I don't know how I'd have the peace of mind to do this outside of someone at least at Dr. M's level. But aside from avoiding Sarin at all costs, I'm not up on the other Indian doctors, so you could be right.

Edit Post

Dr. Sarin and Sringari are both quaks, but Dr. Suhas Shah and Dr. Parihar were both trained by Dr. Paley and Dr. M Catagni.

Ok guys please give us a specific answer, we know Dr Guichet rised his pride to 65000 Euros is it including housing (accommodations) or not?

All LL doctors are moneymakers but Guichet is worth the price. If you try to save and go to the doctor in Spain (cheaper at first sight) you will have to spend much more at the end because nothing is included in the price (accomodation, PT...) and if you have complications you can finally spend 170k like Cooper for tibia or 100k like Musicmaker for femur. These people should have gone to Paley in the first place.
