Bergen, Norway
approx. $23,000 for my 2-level ADR (Prodisc) was performed 7 months ago in Bergen, Norway. (the health care system paid for my surgery)
I would definitely recommend the surgeon and private hospital I went to! Dr. Sjur Braaten (pronounced Broten) of Bergen Spine Center. He has lots of experience and he's good.
Unfortunately, the dollar exchange rate is so bad right now, so your dollar won't go as far as it did just a year ago. Be careful to get all your quotes in the currency you will have to pay in: i.e. Euro's for Germany, Norwegian Kroner for Norway, etc... then do the conversion yourself here:

It may sound silly, but it could be thousands of dollars difference.
2-levels at Bergen Spine Center is approx. NOK 125,000. With today's exchange rate, that's $23,355.60. Far cheaper than any price you'll get back I bet.
I have communicated with many people who have had Dr. Braaten operate on them and every single one of them is impressed with the time he takes to answer questions, with the genuine care he exudes. His staff is the same.
