Title: List Of Other LL Doctors
Post by: Muse on September 23, 2014, 06:26:10 PM
This is for discussion on other LL Doctors & Potential LL Doctors not yet listed in the Directory Section

If you have confirmation that a Doctor is actively performing Cosmetic LL Surgery, then add the information to the section.

Here are some websites that list a number of potential CLL Doctors.  Not all doctors perform LL surgery for cosmetic/height gain reasons.

Herzenberg does lengthening, now?
Title: Re: List Of Other LL Doctors
Post by: KiloKAHN on December 16, 2014, 11:02:53 PM
Dr Herzenberg doesn't do CLL, only reconstruction and discrepancies. All cosmetic cases are done by Dr Janet Conway.

is this a good doctor? usually i dont like newbie or unknown doctors even if they are cheaper. you can loose your legs if you are not careful. its better to investigate them carefully before.
maybe this doctor is good. give him the benefit of doubt. but one must be careful.

I saw this doctor in a site ( shortsupport ) , I did some research and saw that he had already done several times this operation ( you can see his face ) .. I cross it is a good doctor but I still have time to better reflect.. besides, I do not have too much choice because my budget does not exceed 17000 us  :'(
Title: South America Doctors
Post by: Bry on August 19, 2015, 04:33:43 PM
Greetings all

I live in Brazil, and currently brazilian currency is very low, making it almost impossible to save enough money for surgery...

So I was wondering if anyone knows of any cheaper doctors in South America, specially but not exclusively Brazil.

Thanks!

I want to know your opinion about dr ginebreda who works in barcelona. He was dr monegals mentor.

The man has quite a reputation in Spain, but I'm not sure he perform Cosmetic LL. Maybe Dr. Monegal can clarify this.
Title: Re: Dr ginebreda in barcelona
Post by: Arar201 on September 25, 2015, 07:05:27 PM
Yes he didnt do it but now he does it.

Post by: Ozymandias on September 26, 2015, 02:45:44 PM
Yes he didnt do it but now he does it.

Interesting. I'm guessing he uses Fitbone, like Monegal, right? Any chances of him doing external/LON, etc?

I don't think he is cheaper than Monegal, though.

Post by: Arar201 on September 26, 2015, 11:24:55 PM
He uses fitbone, Lon and external. Some people from here have visited him.i dont know about the price. We should ask dr Ginebreda himself

For those looking for good doctors in Europe...
Pili is a very good option.
I have done a bit of a research and found this doctor, he is quite famous in Italian forums.
Many are getting cosmetic leg lengthening with him with good results.

I hope this can help leg lengtheners in Europe in their search for the best options.
Title: LIMB- LENGTHENING surgery
Post by: krish7486 on August 23, 2016, 05:48:57 PM
Well now I am 29 years old unmarried, I touched polio when I was 7, my right leg is perfectly fine, but my left leg is 3 to 4 cm shorter than my right leg. I had surgery when was 8 years old, now I am perfectly fine to walk without any help (Sticks) and I don't have pain either. Recently I heard about LIMB- LENGTHENING, I would like to extend my left leg as equal as my right leg. Will this LIMB- LENGTHENING surgery solves my problem? Please suggest.

Hi there! Really nice talking to you. The answer to your question is yes. And Limb lengthening is originally created as a solution to the different length of limbs. The only problem is the surgery price is relatively high and the recovery time is pretty long(almost a year including rehab). Hope that helps you.

Hi guys.
Dr. Serkan Gurcan in Turkey actively does limb lengthening surgery. I know some of his patients, who are really satisified with the result. He is good specially in LON method and Precice 2.

Dr. Jason Stoneback

From what I can tell, he doesn't do purely cosmetic cases, i.e. stature lengthening. If you have info on that, please do share.

They treat each case and patient individually as is appropriate for such a procedure.  I personally had a consult with him to get a neutral second opinion after having gone for a consult in New York with Dr. Rozbruch.  His team is very good to work with during the consult and they listen well to the concerns of the patient before making any judgement based on a hard and fast rule.  This is not a recommendation, it's just informational.
Title: Need doctor for clavicle and leg lengthening
Post by: Iso9 on April 19, 2018, 04:18:32 PM
I cant live anymore with These subhumanish narrow shoulders, i also have knee axis misalignment which stunted my leg growth.

ALL I WANT is to look LIKE I WANT and NOT like nature made me.

Training is useless with narrow shoulders, it will NEVER look aesthetic.

There was a thread 3 years ago on this site about clavicle lengthening, the guy who made that thread said that he found a surgeon who would perform it.

Does anyone remember this thread? And if yes whats the Name of the surgeon who performs it?
