Anyone knows a good surgeon who uses STRYDE in the UK or Paris??

He is not inexperienced but he is nowhere near as experience as the top doctors are.
But it’s better to do stryde with giotikas than betzbone with betz. Part of the recovery is the method you use. He has a few good diaries but they are all for external tibia. He does stryde for 43k euro I think

If i have to choose between giotikas and guichet for internal femur which one would be better?

I had a consultation with him a couple of years ago and he came across as knowledgeable, experienced and very much "to the point". Giotikas has worked in both Cambridge and Oxford University hospitals  and, as far as I know, you don't get easily accepted in these places. I don't  really think that there many LL surgeons with such credentials.  Best of luck.

Basically neither of these are top doctors but I would go with giotikas for stryde.

But I think Giotikas is one of the top at the moment. He is experienced, but at the same time young enough to be full of energy. He has a PhD and publications and has already contributed in CLL with research about body proportions. He was one of the first surgeons who got Stryde in Europe this year.
