Dr Bierstedt
Well after a lot of research I could wait no longer and decided to get it done. Two level ADR with Bierstedt. Just arrived in Hattingen Germany today. I have pre-op tomorrow and go in for surgery on Tue. So far everything is going well. Flew bussiness class which was nice but expensive. Air Berlin flies direct from LAX to Dusseldorf. Driver was waiting for my dad and I once we got off the plane. It was about a 30 min drive to the hotel and it was included in the overall cost. The hotel is nice and has a kitchen. Will keep you posted.
