I know that there might be some well qualified American surgeons, but I doubt that my insurance covers a 2 level ADR in the USA. More to come, in the meantime, I have some very good Spanish wine recommendations. Cheers.
You might want to look into gofundme.com - it's a website that helps you raise money for various things. I raised over $14,000 to help towards my surgical cost and it made all the difference. You'll be amazed by how much people want to help.
