Limb lengthening clinics in Chile
1 independently-verified clinic in Chile. Methods offered: Ilizarov, LON, PRECICE 2.
Chile has one listed centre: a single surgeon at Clínica Alemana de Santiago, a JCI-accredited private hospital with a formal international patient programme. He trained in Baltimore under Herzenberg and performed the hospital's first PRECICE nail case in 2017; LON and Ilizarov are also offered, and the PRECICE implant is ordered from the United States per patient. Spanish and English are spoken. No price is published, and the surgeon's own website was unreachable during our research, so confirm current devices directly with the hospital — Stryde appears in cached snippets but was recalled in 2021.
By Directory Score — a single published number used only to sort. It normalises every independent rating a clinic holds to a five-point scale, weights each platform by how hard it is to inflate (Google first, Trustpilot second, doctor-booking sites capped low), and pulls thin evidence back toward the field average so a handful of friendly reviews cannot lift a clinic to the top.
A clinic is only eligible to be scored with a real base: at least 30 reviews on one platform and 40 across all of them. Below that it is listed as Unranked and sorts after the scored clinics — absence of evidence, not a verdict.
Position is never for sale, and neither is a rating. A paid profile buys presentation — more photos, a longer description, an interview — and nothing that moves a clinic up this page. Each platform’s own score stays visible and source-linked on the clinic profile; we never present one blended star as the truth. Editorial policy.
