Thanks Maddie. Dr. Pimenta sounds very talented. After 1.5 years since your lumbar fusion, how are you doing / feeling? Does he do surgery in San Diego, and do you know if he takes U.S. insurance? Did you use insurance? Was your surgery in Brazil, Mexico, or California? How did you determine you were allergic to metals?
