about your question
I too know that Dr. Bert'. has done that level. I have heard of surgeons in the US doing facet joint replacement there. I would still refer to Dr. Clavel. I mentioned mine to him when I had my 2 level ADR last May. It's the last level of my neck that hasn't had surgery. I wanted to know what my options were if that level ever went out. He said hopefully it wouldn't as that level the disc is stronger for some reason.
