Default Dr. Clavel response time

Hi Dasses66,

I have not had any approval from Dr. Clavel in response to the information I sent. Although, I am assuming I am a candidate for ADR because the Texas Back Institute got back to me and recommended ADR at the L4/L5 level and a fusion at the L5/S1 level. I'm hoping Dr. Clavel might want to do ADR at both levels as I think I would rather get ADR than fusion even at L5/S1.

PhillyJoe,

Thanks for your information about Dr. Clavel not returning till January 10th. Yolanda mentioned that they had been away on holiday but I did not realize they had gotten back so late.
