  • Paley - the gold standard with an excellent team to support and a very thorough consult which includes a whole body x-ray.  A very refined process that includes PT
  • Kohne - a highly rated trauma/deformity correction surgeon and very friendly too with excellent pricing and a good consult which includes x-rays
  • Salameh/Schmidt - very experienced trauma/deformity correction surgeons who use Prof. Salameh's unique compact hinge based fixator system - friendly, with excellent pricing and a good consult

The 4rth Dr. was a pioneer in LL technology but seems to have lost his way, despite having some excellent qualifications.  I won't name him but if you have done your research you will know who.


In the end which surgeon did u pick for ur femur LL?

I prefer to keep that to myself for now but I can say that my choice was largely due to my current circumstances.  I would prefer that you guys do what I did - see some surgeons before deciding.  But go armed with a good set of questions such as those posted by Unicorn888.  It will likely save you much more money than spent on the consults themselves.  Paley is a special case - he has probably answered all the questions on videos of him that were posted on this forum as well as his excellent FAQs on his website.
