Jim... what was your sport?

Hopefully, you are still a good candidate for ADR. (removed too much bone in laminectomy?) Only listed to very experienced ADR surgeons sho have the option of performing ADR about that..... "you are not a good candidate" often means something different from someone without the option of performing the procedure, than it does from someone who does. Experience level is also key in understanding when the limites can or can't be pushed.

Dr. Matthew Scott-Young is the most experienced ADR surgeon in Australia.

Good luck on your quest.... all the best,

Mark
