The costs were quoted to me by Mr Lam one of our top ADR surgeons who works at Guy's Hospital.

I thought this might be of interest to the USA members. I don't know if they could get their insurers to pay for the surgery. I know Mr Lam is 60 ADRs behind himself at the moment so he's a busy bloke. Please note this does not include your hotels etc

He does implant The Pro Disk, the Charitee, And the Maverick
