I had my C5/C6 prodisc in Germany in July 2006. The only negative thing I can say at this point is that it is difficult to get imaging done now, due to the metal.
When I was researching ADR internationally, Germany, Australia, and other countries, I found that Dr. Bertagnoli had done the highest number of Cervical ADRs at that time. That was a major factor for me in my decision.
I hope this is helpful. I wish you the best of luck for a successful outcome.

July 31, 2006 Surgery successfully completed Prodisc-C C5/C6 on in Straubing, Germany by Dr. Bertagnoli. Able to work full time since 1 month post op, but some pain remains.

Has anyone had a second ADR surgery on an adjacent level?
