Anyway - at the time Dr. Bertagnoli did not use ESP at all. Not sure if he does today, but it ruled him out as a doctor for me.

Given your situation I would consider him a top candidate.

I know of one person who had a cervical revision and she went to Dr. Schmitz. One of the benefits there might be that he's an actual neurosurgeon I think, as opposed to a spine surgeon? I really don't know, but something for you to consider perhaps?
Same reason for me, that's why I did my cp-esp with dr. clavel. Still with pain but for the moment I would say i feel better with cp-esp than fused.
