Which hospital should I choose ?

Hi here !
I am looking for a clinic to undergo a limb lenthening surgery (I am 161, 37yo, for a femoral surgery). But I am quite lost about all the options, and all the comments that say "this one is good", "this one is bad".

After discussing with several, I came up with 2 that seems serious for an affordable price :
- AFA from Turkey
- Paley institute form Poland

I haven't discussed yet with Betz Institute and Giotikas clinic but seems serious one also.

Does anyone have an opinion with these hospitals ?

Thanks !

If you can edit the subject (or create a new post entirely) and include the specific names of the hospitals you are considering, you might get more traction.

Best of luck!

I do not recommend going to Turkey, they are pretty much all butchers who will hide complications and lie to you.

Betz Institute and Giotikas are cheaper than Poland.

I have read some bad stories of Turkey surgeron indeed, but AFA seems one of the most more serious. I had an interview with the surgeron, and it seems to me ok.

I would just stay away from Turkey period. AFA (from what I have read on the forums) is not a butcher shop in the same way other LL companies there are, but I would still not risk it.

I almost did surgery with AFA in Turkey at their hospital and I agree with the others, that AFA is most likely the least bad option in Turkey. In my case the risks outweighted the rewards, since their surgeon Mustafa Uysal wasn't sure if the nails would fit in my bone canals or not, so I decided against it, since I value my health over height.

I don't have any real complaints with them, other than the fact that it is a bit sketchy, that they only want you to pay in crypto.

But I would personally rather safe up for dr Assyag or Birkholtz, since they with Precice cost a little bit more, but offers greater value and safety.
