Hello guys,

Sorry if this question has already been answered somewhere else on this forum.

My top concerns: recovery, complications, covered costs of complications.

Also, how open are these doctors about their results? I would like to visit/email a few of them to see evidence, not just a few guys on the forum either happy with the results or suffering from complications or lost diaries.

Cheers

Thank you for your replies guys!

I met dr G in Milano a few months ago. Even though I had explained I want to do tibias before, he was talking all the time about femurs at the consultation. When I started pushing for tibias he said I can get into trouble and that he doesn't normally do it. He also couldn't show me any recent results in lower legs lengthening. But he said a few times he was the first one in the world who did it with internal nail.

I already posted my pictures in this thread: http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=3730.0
Here they are again:

I really think lower legs extended will look better on me. That's why I ruled dr G out and want someone who does lower legs lengthening often and has his hands on it.

What do you think about dr Catagni? He prefers lower legs.

Cheers
