Default germany or ceders sanai

Hello;
I am new to the forum. I am looking at an L5 S1 ADR. Considering cedsrs sanai or Germany. Neurosurgeon from Cleveland clinic told me that he took out as many adr's as he put in. He stated they are dangerous:especially lumbar. However: I cannot stay this way. So it is Germany or Sinai. Anyone have experience with sinai?

Sinai would be a prodisc....Germany would be an M6...I suggest you research the discs and outcomes and way the advantages or disadvantages of each. IMHO, it's the M6 without hesitation.r

Davros,

I had my surgery in Germany, I have no regrets. If you are out of pocket on either side Europe is a consideration. If its being paid for by insurance Cleveland looks good from my perspective, because I'm cheap.
BTW
