Hi Todd,

We are currently working on getting privileges abroad to do the m6. We are hoping to be able to go over in the next few months for the first cases.

We have several patients who have gone abroad that we manage post op. im sure he would be happy to do so in your case as well.

We can also do a phone consult and go over all your films as a second opinion if you are interested.

Let me know your plans,
Natalie
That is so wonderful!
