Doctor Kandemir is an expert.

It’s certainly possible that he’s involved at conducting novel research and seeing patients instead of wasting time at events hosted by a Limb Lengthening Society. I’m a member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons and aside from operating a mediocre journal; all they do is host parties alongside the AANS. Can you say more about the clinical utility of the LL Society you appear to be referencing?

Doctor Kandemir has been practicing (within the United States) for approximately 9 years, 6 months, 22 days longer than Michael J. Assayag (NPI: 1457726713). Clinical experience is important. Just because someone is unfamiliar with a particular surgeon does it mean the pearls of their (operative) technique are unrefined.
