There are so many patients of Dr. Betz that develop major complications with the Betzbone!  Now we know Apotheosis is invested in Dr. Betz and the Betzbone.

Almost every single patient of Dr. Betz that I have ever met has broken or bent their nail or screws.  Almost every single patient!!

Dr. Betz advertises his nail as weight bearing but I don't believe it for one second.  He has used that as an advertising scam to make people think they will be mobile from the very beginning of lengthening and tells them to walk as much as possible.  When they walk as Dr. Betz tells them to they always break/bend their nails/screws and then require more surgery to fix the problem.  Oldiebutgoldie diary is the perfect example.  Andrewshizzles had titanium nail replacement and hid it from the entire community until someone noticed the difference in the x-rays and called him out on it.  Apotheosis completely broke his tibia nail almost a full year after his tibia surgery.

When you add up the cost of further surgery to fix the nail/screws or replace them altogether with the titanium nails it ends up costing way more than even the most expensive Dr. Paley.  It's a money making scam over there at the Betz Institute!

Update:  Dr Betz's respond in this post

Quote from: Kilokahn on September 26, 2013, 11:33:42 PMDo you have a link/remember the page where someone pointed out the difference in Andrewshizzles nail replacement?


Here is the link- Page 15 of "Topic: Andrewshizzles - Internal Femurs - Dr Betz - 2011 - Blitzkrieg For 9 CM"

Look at the first and 5th post on the page.

Quote from: BilateralDamage on November 20, 2013, 12:27:35 AMGod, it's scary how many broken nails are being reported with the Betzbone.

Y'know what's even scarier?  That SysOp/Apotheosis continues to push it on old forum  when he's profiting off the misery of others.


Agree 100% with you! It's disgusting to watch Apotheosis/Sysop and Dr. Betz willing to make patients guinea pigs so they can line their pockets with money!

Trust me when I say the bent and broken nails and screws with the Betzbone are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to complications with Dr. Betz and the Betzbone...
