Here is a new MD I found which seems to offer limb lengthening surgery. He seems to be based in Pakistan and has training in orthopedic reconstructive surgery. The profile below is from his LinkedIn profile available Here (http://pk.linkedin.com/pub/khaqan-jahangir-janjua/a/38b/18). His website is at www.poacc.com (http://www.poacc.com/) which stands for Pakistan Orthopaedic & Cosmetic Center (http://www.poacc.com/).

So has anybody ever heard of him before?
-
I'm south Asian but born abroad. The idea of going there is insane. The ultimate package is listed at 10K but should really be the base package. Also there are no pictures of frames and no specifics regarding the surgery itself. (LON, LATN, etc)
If someone can get him on this site to answer questions like Dr. Birkholtz, only then would it be responsible to even list him on LL Forum. Just my opinion.
-
if you want to get your limbs butchered and permanently disabled go on.
Why do people have to go and find such ty 3rd world crap??
-
My biggest worry would be getting taken hostage by some random jihadist or something. Pakistan is considered to be one of, if not the most dangerous country on the planet currently.
-
I have friends who are Pakistani doctors, and they are very good. But they work in Australia and Southeast Asia.
I agree with the others. Going to Pakistan is simply "buyers beware."
LL Jihad?
-
Afghanistan, North Korea, Syria..... And then there's Pakistan.
You'd have to be as insane as the population to go there for CLL.
-
A user on old forum has said that they just did their surgery with this doctor in Pakistan two months ago. I hope for his sake that he was a local.
-
Dr. Khaqan Jahangir Janjua's height increase web site is www.hillsclinic.com, which stands for Height Increase by Limb Lengthening Surgery Clinic located at Islamabad, offering the lowest cost.
-
plz any new about this doctor or any member did the surgery with him???

If you could not for any reason read the above posts from fellow members in this thread then you shouldn't even consider getting surgery for your legs. God.
-
I, know through internet, a few international patients and GMC (general medical council of England) web site that, Dr. Khaqan Janjua has an excellent profile. He has worked in UK, AUSTRALIA, AMERICA, SAUDI ARABIA &Pakistan Military. Through linkedin and facebook, I came to know that he has got CLL clients from Canada, Afghanistan, Middle East countries, Philippines, Malaysia and Burma. His Pakistani patients are besides the one mentioned.
He is only using Ilizarov technology and locally made tubular external devices. You may find more information on www.poacc.com and https://www.facebook.com/orthopaedics
-
Before you decide to go over there, read this http://www. /index.php/topic,7128.0.html. His price is low for a reason. He is a butcher and greedy doctor who has no morals.Offcourse there are many good doctors from pakistan but he is not one of them.

This link alone shows why you'd be totally crazy to go to Pakistan for any reason. Imagine just how screwed you'll be if something goes wrong and you can't even walk.
-
Hey how you post the link here. The link in my post is messed up. It filters out . and / in the domain name
-
Direct links to that site aren't allowed here. Though the other site doesn't allow dirrect links to here either.
-
Hi I have gone through http://www. /index.php/topic,7126.0/prev_next,prev.html#new
regarding Dr Khaqan. It seems quite encouraging to achieve CLL with such a low price with the services provided. I think the medical side seems to be well looked after. Other logistics can be sorted out with little more spending there in Hills clinic Islamabad.
-
@@gurru You have to read through the whole diary from iTall.
He did some revelation towards the end. I am sure once you read that, you will have different opinion about this doctor. Better be safe then sorry.
-
I do have read the whole diary, I think doc Is quite capable of doing CLL, as I can see that he is getting patients from out side Pakistan like Canada, Burma, Dubai. They all would have corresponded with him in detail before going fr surgery. He is visiting his patients every week, doing their dressing him self, transporting patient to hospital in his own car, every week physiotherapist visit, and trouble shooting medical issues as they arise. I would pay doctor some More to provide me with better residence and internal furnishings. I think one should not leave his doctor at such a critical time at a stage when your height aim is achieved and you may just need two More months for consolidation just for reason of curtains and other manageable items for little more spending. But I am still thinking about spending a little more to get better house with still less over all cost.

"and locally made tubular external devices" ... from the scrapyard?
-
@@Gurru. Did you check the photos of the so called "Guest house". Thats where you want be when you are crippled for 6 months. It was a rat hole. and the guy didn't leave him for a set of curtains but because he started bullying him. He was asking for money to fix the mess he created at the first place. That dude got sever bellerina foot so much that he couldn't stand. Do you think he would have had this problem if the doc was regularly visting him like you are claiming. I was following his diary because at some point i was also considering this doc .
If you provide at least one diary(not more) where he did what you are claiming is doing then i will be glad to read it through. Some time credentials alone are not enough.In this profession ethics are as important as any other credential. But if you have decided to go over there then i would defintely wish you good luck and a successful outcome.
-
Jesus Christ. The fact that you guys even consider Pakistan shows how retarded you really must be!!
Sure, go ahead - ruin your lifes ;D
-
Eager. I am a medical student. I have educated myself in limb lengthening to the maximum extent. I got his other patients contacts and have already contacted and spoken with them. The doctor is very sympathetic, caring, visits every patient every week, charges only for the services to be provided at reasonably manageable cost to pay the hospital, operating theatre, X-rays etc. What ever is included in his packages is provided as per his patients.
Regarding bullying, I think he has to arrange payments to provide services. I think no doctor would like to loose his patients and credibility for such minor issues. One of his patient from Canada, she mentioned that he has provided accommodation for her full family in the same package, an attendant full time, all utility bills, internet and all required furnishings for her mother, brother, sister in law, an auntie and a child were provided. She and other patients were satisfied with packages and the medical care. According to the doctor, his policy is to have physio every six hours with once a week support from a physiotherapist. The full time attendant assists in every six hourly physio. One of his patient did mention about iTall, that he was not regular in self physio and got his muscles wasted, in spite of regular doctor and physiotherapists visits every week and repeated reminders.
During my research, I know that every patient in every center would get ankle contracture if he goes beyond 7.5 cm of leg stretching, which can only be minimized and not prevented totally with physio. Most of patients would go for tendon lengthening and rings adjustment to give more space to the stretched tendons.
More over according to my enquiry from his patients and the doctor him self, he does not provide guest house arrangements, he rents a house which some times become difficult to find as per his standards and he does shift his patients to better places on availability.
I have calculated all the costs my self and inquired from available regular guest houses in Islamabad, with his packages he is not saving much.
I asked the doctor myself, how come he is managing all this with such a low cost and having all the medical needs of patients to be fulfilled. His answer was that most of the stuff he is doing himself just to be sure that he beats other international high costs and develop this specialty there.
I think regarding ethical issue you raised, he does recognize that to fulfill his ethical duty he is in contact with his patients and provide them both medical and non medical help with in the resources available to him as per the packages and local circumstances.
I do feel very sorry for iTall that because of his fund shortage, he could not availed the full facilities. My advise to all prospective height increase candidates would be that, they should think twice before going for limb lengthening with limited funds.
-
Since you have already made your mind, all i can say is good luck.
-
But the think is we don't have any pictures of his patients or any one of them told us his story so how how can we assure that he is a good doctor
-
Mimi. Good doctor I think is the one who can achieve the results. Some his patients' pictures are there on his Facebook page: www.Facebook.com/hillsclinic . When I spoke with his patients on the phone and Skype, I could assess them on line. The circumstances were to my satisfaction. The doctor told me that he has clinical experience of thirty four years and has worked in different countries and is presently also fully registered in England GMC.
-
My only question is: do we have to grow a thick long beard before going there and if so, how long will it set me back?
-
That the ultimate price for them is only $10,000 is enough reason to know your quality of care will be crap. What desperate crazy unrealistic person you have to be to do this in Pakistan and risk getting shot up by a terrorist or blown up in a street bombing
-
Dunno man, I've heard that they give you a rocket launcher at signup, pretty tempting!
-
I think it's better to visit there and check the hospital and patients before taking any decisions what do u think guys??
-
My biggest worry would be getting taken hostage by some random jihadist or something. Pakistan is considered to be one of, if not the most dangerous country on the planet currently.
Not necessarily true. The countryside might be crazy, but Islamabad is extremely safe. Pakistan is a very stable country--it certainly isn't Syria. I wouldn't worry.
-
Wow I think I maybe choose this doctor. Go there for quadrilateral and then later arm lengthening and only little over 15,000 US!

Doesn't seem to be the case as of recent.
"On April 9, a bomb detonated at a fruit and vegetable market in Islamabad, killing 24 people and injuring 116. On March 3, a bomb and firearm attack on a courthouse in Islamabad killed 11 people. In 2013, there were 355 distinct terror incidents throughout Pakistan."

That's still out of 1.7 million people whom live in the country. Yes, Pakistan does have a lot of terrorist incidents, but Islamabad is comparably safe, even to most American and European cities. Adding together homicide and terrorist deaths, the Pakistani homicide rate appears to be about 8 per 100,000 residents. New York, London, Los Angeles, Paris, and Moscow have homicide rates of 4.0, 2.5, 7.8, 4.0, and 11.2 per 100,000 residents. Islamabad might not be safe as much Tokyo, but it isn't some war-ravaged hell-hole, either.
-
You still have to fly over other areas of Pakistan to get to Islamabad and the terrorists there aren't averse to shooting down planes.

International jets almost never get shot down. That's why the Malaysian Flights were so publicized.
-
Only racist are against Pakistan.
-
They aren't racist; they are misinformed.
-
They aren't racist or misinformed, they're logical. One would have to be a complete retard to go to Pakistan for lengthening.

Planes rarely get shot down.

Hi there guy from old forum .
We cant trust anything from old forum . Not from your overlord Sysop or any of his henchmen 'Tall' . In fact, we got booted off the minute we dared question the almighty guru about his relationship with Sarin.
Why do you think this forum is here?
Now I think we get the fact you don't like this guy but unless you have someone who actually did their surgery there then I would not bad mouth any doctor just because his price is so low it threatens other doctors who have higher prices.
The conflict of interest to destroy the competition is too strong at this stage. We know a lot of the LL customer dollar is originated on these two sites. So when someone just appears to bad mouth a doctor with no pictures nor actual patients testimony, its suspicious and should not be given.
If there is some compelling and objective reason not to go to that doctor (and anti west sediment by the army is one of them) then please do tell . No 'word on the street' or .........so and so says.......
-
Dr khaqan is killer of humanity . safe your self to contact
-
There is a high chance that if you are not of middle eastern ethnicity you will be a target. $200 is a crapload of money and in Afghanistan they will kidnap just about anyone for just that amount pakistan is not much different and if anything is much worse as a majority of the Taliban/extreamists are established there. LL takes awhile plus this fkboy looks like he just wants cash. "The dream to make you taller" lmao. fking fkboy. Never trust a clown like this i would take this post down to protect people on this forum even considering a clown like this doing his clown work in a clown country.
-
Just went through his website and facebook page and Google.
This guy is literally under the radar and uses Google stock images to try and tries to make his fb page seem professional but fails because those are tiny images he saved from Google.
imagine if something went wrong with your surgery, he can just disappear without a trace.
His website has still not yet been updated till this day and the guest house you will be staying at which he provides in the so called "10k USD package) is literally a small cage flat in some obscure location.
Imagine how dirty that shethole is, the amount of bacteria lurking by.
I highly recommend people to do this in the USA by paying more instead of doing it in a shethole countries known for their shet hygiene and filth.
Look at his youtube channel also, the way he types seems so unprofessional.
Be safe and BEWARE
-
without any of his patient complaining here on ll forums, its just plain stupid to presume he's bad. That is just ignorant thinking.

Huh?? Dude I LIVE here. It’s safe AF. It’s litera one of the safest cities in the world infact and easily safest in Pakistan. Dunno what propaganda you’re being fed.

Again, what are you on dude? There’s been no such incident seriously spreading all this wrong info you should have been long kicked out :s
-

There was someone on old forum who went there and regretted it due to doctor negligence, among other things.
Huh?? Dude I LIVE here. It’s safe AF. It’s litera one of the safest cities in the world infact and easily safest in Pakistan. Dunno what propaganda you’re being fed.
The US Government's travel advisory warning is the propaganda I'm listening to.
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/pakistan-travel-advisory.html
As a Pakistani local, your level of safety would be higher than that of some American medical tourist arriving with a ton of cash, no ability to speak Urdu, and eventual broken legs.
People can do what they want, but it's my opinion that you'd have to be pretty retarded to do leg lengthening in Pakistan with this doctor considering all the other options available.

Well you might want to check this too: https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/pakistan-adventure-travel/index.html?fbclid=IwAR0PTEpUQ1qkZec1glIDqIqBd6rl_Nzwbhfq1pnRmJuurAWiLYfoIgs36cs
There’s a reason tourism has only been going up past 5 years, and a city like Islamabad is even safer than the mountainous regions in the article above. A person who is living here since 25 years knows more. Check it’s safety ranking in the world. Also, I never promoted or said anything abt Dr Jahangir, he’s only 15 mins away from where I live but since he does traditional illizirov I have no interest, I just stated how you’re misinformed abt Islamabad’s safety level.
