Amy,
You are in good hands -- Dr. Pettine is awesome and is a pioneer here in the United States for ADR. He also performed ADR at my C5-7. When I was sitting in your shoes 6 months ago, I knew I had nothing to worry about and was very confidant in Dr. Pettine's abilities. You will be well taken care of by Dr. Pettine and the staff at Poudre hospital. Good luck -- you will be so happy you did this for you and your family.
We're you able to get insurance to cover your surgery? If so, please share what carrier your with so we are all aware. Thank you!
