I met Stillyoung in hospital when I had my surgery.
In his case the reason for nail bending was a delayed bone-healing plus walking without crutches too early, as far as I know. That's a possible complication with every internal nail.
What's most important is, that he is fine now.
Dr Betz Complications! Nail/Screws Break and Require More Money and Surgery
Just saw this message, 2.5 months later. I'll confirm that my right nail started started to break because I began walking without crutches before there was enough bone formation to support my weight. That prompted me to get titaniums in both femurs.
And yes, I'm doing fine...jogging, dancing, weightlifting 
I could be wrong but some youtube vids shows Guichet talk about possibility of screws breaking also. In all in all, one must be careful until consolidation
No further info?

I did like Betz, but, after what I've read here...bye bye bro.
Tallerbetter, bro! I perfectly understand you. I am scared about Betz. There are some crazy (and crappy) doctors in this forum... I hate how they take advantage of us. They take our money and don't care about us.

I know what you mean. I felt the exact same way.

We should fight against unethic doctors from this forum for preventing future patients from being crippled and disabled. Don't trust Saarin, dont't trust Mongeal, don't trust Betz... A lot of promotion and no good care.

As far as I'm aware, Dr. Monegal has not done anything except offer some advice on the forums. There's nothing wrong with that and there's no reason why users have to demonize every doctor that has an internet connection. It's one thing to call out doctors with a history of crippling patients on their crap, it's another to automatically accuse them of being unethical with no basis whatsoever.
