What made me decide not to do CLL with Dr Talwar's team is that they don't fixate the fibula, which I was told was very important by three ASAMI members. Dr Verma, the main surgeon of Dr Talwar's team, was a nice guy though.

Yeah that could be rough cause the whole bone has to lengthen with the tibia. Will do a consultation with him though but thanks for making me know this.

Are TSF weight-bearing? If so, I might do my ll with him this next January of 2016.

You'd have to wear the TSF the same amount of time as exfix with a standard frame. Only major difference between Ilizarov frames and something like TSF is that the TSF has six-axis correction capability.

Does he have a maximum limit for lengthening of the femurs? Beijing puts it at 4-5cm, Dr Parihar at 6cm and Dr Shah of Mumbai at 7.5cm

His head surgeon Dr Verma didn't mention a lengthening limit, just said that they may recommend more lengthening if your body takes it well or less if your body responds poorly.

I'll probably get about 7.5 cm on my tibias with Dr. Shah next year.

If you're doing tibias then Dr Dhawan might be a better bet than Dr Shah because he uses the hexapod. Unless your intention is to go with LON.

I met with Dr. Talwar.  He lied to me multiple times, and then referred me to another surgeon who is on his team. Probably makes money off the referral or something.

Yes I heard that he does not actually do the surgery just supervises. As long as he is a safer option than the other Indian doctors I do not mind.

There's this doctor named doctor talwar. I was initially wanting to go to parihar but talwar looks so much cheaper + Delhi is a far better place to live in compared to Bombay. Getting a place to live in Bombay doesn't sound like a good plan to me.

What's the forum's general opinion on Doctor talwar? Anyone gone to him?

Btw he's cheaper than Sarin even. Plus he offers monorails. Plus is trained under paley

Im just as clueless as you. Although someone here mentioned the price to be 8500 dollars. Not sure if the price still remains that. I haven't emailed him yet. Haven't even looked for it yet.

He performs monorails on both tibias and femurs. (Again source is this forum itself)

It seems skeptical though, I can't seem to find a website. What if this doctor is a scam or unexperienced?

Naveen talwar. Doctor's legit. My problems are 1.I don't see any proof of his fellowship from Paley, 2. Looks really old. Might have dementia like sleepy Joe, 3. The price is unbelievably cheap.

Would love to see some evidence corroborating the fancy educational and professional record that I saw in the doctor details section.

I talked to Doctor Parihar and he said that Doctor Paley also has an Ilizarov basics course that he taught at some point, but that Doctor Talwar was never a fellow of Paley, he just took that course. If Doctor Talwar says he did a fellowship with him then I think he is fibbing.

During my consultation with Dr Verma, it was revealed that Dr Talwar would be in the OR as a supervisor of the team, but that he personally doesn't operate for CLL. The doctors at that time doing the procedure would consist of Dr Verma and Dr Gurdeep Singh Ratra.  Some others managed to see him after me to seek advice after Dr Sringari operated on them, but that's the most I've heard.

He did embellish to at least one person about his experience with Dr Paley though, and Dr Dhawan didn't have a good opinion of him, but I don't know if that's a personal bias thing or what since they worked at the same hospital at one point.
