all I know is...

If my husband needs something more done with his L4/5 after this micro discectomy heals? I will sell a kidney to get him to Dr. Clavel in Spain! :)

Cynlite

Sounds like you had a great enlightenment after speaking to Dr. Clavel. I am way better than before surgery! I trust his assessment totally! He wanted to address the c 6/7/t1 so that I would not...

now thta's a good idea

The Buddy system! You may have something there. It's a lot less scary to go with someone else that is having surgery as well. I found my phone consult with Dr. Zeegers frustrating. He has this delay...

PS

and out of network here

a two level adr would cost $70,000 in the US out of pocket and over in Europe it's $32,000 - $35,000 depending from what I was quoted. I got that $70,000 from a story I read about on Dr. Light in...

Hi Cynlite, I'd be glad to explain

I had sent a flexion extension MRI to Clavel and he noticed that there was too much segmental kyphosis below the c 6/7 upon flexion and that he would most likely do adr at c 7/t1 as well. Both...

The reason for my move to Clavel

He was the only one that in his assessment he noticed the segmental kyphosis upon flexion below the c 6/7 at T1. He said the 6/7 for sure and is ready to do two level if needed. He doesn't want for...

First off your US surgeon can't get access to the M6-C and did they not tell you that Pro-Disc has higher rates of HO and Mobi-C has had it too...At least Bierstedt can use an M6 or the Mobi. Once...
