Just joined and saw your post... If you are still looking we have a U.S. Fellowship trained orthopedic spine surgeon now living on STX. Dr's name is Dr. Deb Appleyard and can be reached at OrthoCaribbean 340-778-6110. I am sure she would be happy to review any studies you have had, or even offer a second opinion.

Spinal fusions can be done by either a neurosurgeon or an orthopedic surgeon. Often the two work together on such cases. The specialities are trained differently and you should think about the differences.
