I hope the rumor aboutt he Alphaklinik is false. Maybe this is a good time to pass this along.

My brother works in Germany many months of the year and works with many professional athletes. I asked if he knew anyone that would have an opinion on Stenum and on alphaklinik. Below is a letter to my brother from a friend who is the head of surgery in a German hospital. Doesn't say anything bad, but he would go elsewhere. He doesn't live near Munich, so he asked a collegue for their opinion.....

"Ok, the stenum hospital is not well known
in germany (ok it's far north when you come from freiburg). but their
webpage is typically to catch foreigners. my friend has worked in munich for
a long time, so he says alphaclinic is ok, but not very special.
he recommends a hospital in bielefeld (not too far away from julich).
webpage is only in german, but it looks very good. highest standard, not
moneydriven:"

That said, I personally have only heard good of the Alphaklinik and would go there in a heartbeat. I just passed this along because it surprised me that this guy wasn't very impressed.

Also, aren't doctors immune from lawsuits in Europe? I thought you can not sue a doctor there?
