Re: Radiation Therapy in US (Texas) Cost? X days X treatments?

I received my first set of 5 X-ray treatments on both hands in Essen and the total bill was 400 Euros. I received my second set of 5 treatments (machine was down for maintenance in Essen) in San Francisco and the bill was over $8,000 and my co-pay costs were roughly $2,300. But for the problems with rescheduling for Germany of hotel, air, train, and the clinic, I would have still gone to Essen but I did not want to delay treatment for 3-4 months.

The primary benefit to seeing Dr. Seegenschmiedt was his many years of experience in both diagnosis and treatment of people with Dupuytrens. He determined that my right hand had progressed much further than had been thought by Dr. Denkler who had performed a NA procedure on this hand as well as my left hand 90 days prior. Another doctor would have missed this and not treated my second hand as extensively (in terms of the areas exposed) as was done at the clinic in Essen.
