I paid $42500 for a 3 ADR in Barcelona but got a quote of about $52000 from Germany. Dr Cavel was great and I am recovering quickly after only 7 days , I have walked about 17 miles about 5-6 miles every day after day 3 of surgery. Still have numb arm but pain getting better in arm. I think a two level in Barcelona was about $33000. Of course that is dollars they charge euros, but the Euro is very low right now. They aso allowed me to use my credit card and I got the daily rate which is cheaper than the wire rate saving me nearly $3000 even after fees. They made a mistake on my daily rate so I called them and they waved over $1100 in additional credit card fees. Unfortunately I am military and Tricare will not cover any costs of the ADR but I will file and also appeal if I can anyway.
