Neurosurgeons performing disc replacement surgery @MAYO, Jacksonville

We are in Miami, we were planning to go to Mayo Jacksonville. Initial interaction was not the greatest. They said we don’t take your insurance and you may have to pay $100, 000 upfront. In fact, I called, my insurance covers as out of network and we may have to pay more as compared to in network. I rather go to Johns Hopkins as I had a very pleasant interaction and a very good prior experience.
Mayo may have good doctors; so does other places. I rather spend money where they care. My prior experience with Mayo few years ago was also so so

With minimal perusing of best spine surgeons, this popped up;
Hoon Choi, MD, PhD, Cleveland Clinic (Weston, Fla.). Dr. Choi joined Cleveland Clinic Florida in May. He specializes in minimally invasive robotic spine surgery, "artificial disc replacement" and restorative spine surgery.
Best of luck.

If you know which artificial disc you’re interested in, try contacting the rep & they may help you locate a doctor near you that uses it. Your doctor may even be able to refer you to someone close.
