About BFZB – Bein und Fußzentrum Bayern
BFZB, the Bein und Fußzentrum Bayern, is a private practice at Kastanienallee 9 in Großhesselohe, just south of Munich, and part of the Orthopädie Zentrum Isartal group with sites in Pullach, Geretsried and Bad Tölz. Guido Köhne, Facharzt für Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie and Facharzt für Allgemeinchirurgie, has directed it since 2013; a colleague, Scharpf, is listed with him in the group practice. It performs cosmetic and medically necessary leg lengthening with the PRECICE Max internal magnetic nail, plus axis and foot correction.

Google shows 5.0 from 6 reviews, and existence is confirmed through Doctolib, arzt-auskunft, sanego and meinestadt. Consultation is offered in English, Russian, Arabic and French.
