As a condition to continue negotiations with my insurance, they want me to speak to a few patients that have "been there, done that" with regards to Dr. Bertagnoli, Germany, ADR (cervical and/or lumbar) and/or TSMS lumbar. I have spoken with a 5+ year multiple cervical patient and need to speak to at least one more patient. I need to have a phone conversation before 1/10/12 so that I can go meet with insurance again. If you are willing to talk to me (on the phone) please email me your number and a good time to contact you.
Thanks in advance,
Larry
