"well just go back to your doctor and pay the 10-15k or see if your insurance will help at all"

So let's say you're American and your insurance doesn't help so much.

1. Should you go back to the a leg lengthening surgeon specifically or can any orthopedic surgeon remove them easily?

2. What are your thoughts on going abroad to get two or four rods removed all at once?
Ex: Fly all the way to Greece to see Dr. Giotikas to get the rods removed? Or is he significantly worse at this or is the flight cost/rent not worth it?

3. Is it safe to get all four rods removed in one session?
