Marti,
From the tone of your post it sounds like you've had a very good outcome. Congratulations and ...
!
I assume that you saw Dr Boeree? I've heard nothing but glowing reports about him. IN fact there is another poster on this site that had a double ADR with him this summer. He can't post right now because he's in Asia mountain climbing in the Himalayas.
With the huge volume of patients on which they operate, Stenum is bound to have some bad experiences. But like you I didn't go there either. I had a double M6 ADR with Dr Pablo Clavel of the Barcelona Spine Center in Spain ($27533). So far I've had an excellent outcome also. Next month I'll run my second post-surgical marathon.
Here's hoping that our respective good outcomes hold up!
