adr in munich

[holly]

I am considering going to Munich in early August for adr of S1-L5 and L5-L4 with Dr. Zeegers. Has anyone had surgery at the new Klinic? Alpha Klinic no longer exists. The new facility is just across the street from Alpha and is supposed to be just as good. Just trying to get some feedback from someone who's already been there.

Another question - the reason I'm going to Germany is that the doctors I've seen in Houston are telling me that my herniated discs are no big deal and that they should not be causing pain. Has anyone else had that experience with doctors in the US?

Laura just had knee surgery at Starmed, where Zeegers is supposed to do his surgeries, with good results and a positive opinion of the clinic. It isn't across the street from where the Alpha Klinik used to be, that's where the knee office is, but a fair distance away to the SE of the old Alpha Kilinik.

Holly,
Why not talk to some other US doctors? I checked out a few and then chose Regan in Los Angeles. I nearly went to Germany as I speak German and used to live there, but decided having a "local" doctor was important to me.
