Released from T.V today at noon news, I watch the reportaz on two channels ET2 and ERT3, the operation done in a clinical near this rehabilitation center (olympion-sa.gr), like Dr. says the patient after the operation goes to this center for rehabilitation.
Dr's name is Nikolaos Papadakis and a team of Portugal Doctors, Dr. Lima I think. Last summer Dr. Papadakis travel with a patient from Greece to Portugal to watch live the operation of Dr. Lima, I think the two Dr's tandem
and the first operation here is true. The operation done to a 24 man from Crete.
I wright this website not for promotion or any other reason only for if anyone want to find more infos about, it's a start to find more infos because this rehabilitation center collaborate with the clinical and I think this man(who do the operation) he will go there after a few days.
You miss something manouli! where do you live?

xagi, thank you and it's nice of you to let us know. That's how we find about things. That's a different story, you show it on tv, because the site that you provited does not say anything about that. Maybe I can write to them and see what they have to say regarding his improvement. Meantime, if you hear something new, please let us know. Again thank you, and i live in south florida. opa! manouli.
