Looks like they are only doing single level L4-L5 studies. I was excited too when I first looked at the clinical trials. I am so discouraged right now I don't know what to do. I have to call my ins. co. Monday I have not hear from them since I sent my book to them.

Hi, I am a new member, so I hope I am doing this right. I just found out today that I have been accepted into the Wallis Study. I will be receiving the Wallis device and mu surgery is set for July 30th.
My problem is with the L4-L5. The Wallis study is for the treatment of mild to moderate DDD of the lumbar spine. The patients receive either a Wallis, Charite or Prodisc-L. I can provide more information concerning the structure of the Wallis device, etc., if anyone has questions. One benefit of the Wallis device is that it is reversible. Wish me luck!
