I think I got lucky, we discussed the possibility of Spain & the reasons why we were considering surgery overseas with my Neurosurgeon before going to Spain. We point blanked asked himif he would do follow up treatment post op. I think he understood that without insurance paying we could not afford the approx. $150,000 it would cost to have surgery here. Plus he had never done a 2 level replacement.....
