Background
Doç. Dr. Ozan Ali Erdal (FEBOT) graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine (English programme, 2000–2006) and completed his Orthopedics and Traumatology residency at the same institution (2008–2013). He founded his private practice in Istanbul in 2015 and received the associate professor title in 2022. His career is rooted in pediatric orthopedics — covering cerebral palsy, osteogenesis imperfecta, gait analysis, and congenital deformities — which underpins his precision in cosmetic limb lengthening. He is a member of TOTBID, EPOS, and AAOS and has contributed 18 internationally published scientific articles.
