Title: Need some help
Post by: The Stark on October 03, 2023, 10:08:19 AM
Hi I just wanted to have your opinions and suggestions so lemme explain my situation, I'm mid20 persian boy who plans to do the surgery for next year summer
But I got a problem, i had it planned to do it in Athens but getting Schengen visa is difficult in Iran, wanted to know if Dr can grant me a medical visa or something?
And had another question, i heard a lot about ppl getting butchered in Turkey and the unpleasant atmosphere that users made for it like +30% of the comments go on those topics and made the forum annoying tbh but I'm wondering if there is any good doctor who uses nails(g nail, precice, etc) and has a good background in Turkey? So i can consider it as my 2nd option, btw if you got any other suggestions besides my questions I'd love to hear them!
Ty for giving me your time!

As much as possible, consider Turkey as your last option. If budget is a concern, you can choose Dr. Birkholtz or Dr. Giotikas, both of whom are much better than Turkey. By the way, I believe Dr. Birkholtz is one of the world-class surgeons.

Turkey as last resort but if you must go try AFA. Whatever you do please don't go to WBT wannabetaller they are shameless monsters and the conditions there for patients is just horrible.

I'm half Persian ;)

http://www.limblengtheningforum.com/index.php?topic=84626.0 Look at my respons here, their is at least one good surgeon you can go to in Turkey with positive verified reviews on this forum.

I can't recommend dr Giotikas anymore since I learned of a guy who got 4 times non union on Cyborg4lifes live podcast. I have spoken with patients who hasn't been satisfied with multiple things with them, and he also have had one death incident and someone suing him for not giving them their deposit back. He might not be a terrible option but his accomodation package isn't that great and their is better choices in my opinion.

Dr Birkholtz is probably the best surgeon for the money. However he is 30% more expensive then other good budget options and living in Iran you would probably need 3 connecting flights and 20 hours to come home with handicap support.

why Birkholtz is best surgeon? He doesn't have a diary there are no google reviews nothing.
I don't think Birkholtz is the best surgeon.

If you still have doubts about Dr. B, this may prove that you need to do more research. Try searching for cyborg4life on YouTube, where there is more additional information.
