Dear Mr. Merten,
Please excuse me, writing in english. It was good meeting you. I was completely enthralled by the effeciency and effiacy of all the arrangements you made for my trip to Lübeck
(The free pick up from The Airport in Lübeck, (The return to Stansted went without a hitch)  together with meeting the surgeons, etc.) to investigate the possibility of dental treatmentwhich, quite honestly
is not available here in the United Kingdom within our ailing and declining Welfare State and national Health Service ( NSH. ): there are many people living here in England in places where there are no dentists.

Some are having to resort to pulling their own teeth out with pliers ( this is 2006 ) - all too often they cannot afford to seek help in a private sector of dentistry - cost are outrageous.

Having decided to contact you, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the fee for consultation with those surgeons, orthodontics, etc. who render services to your business, is completely free.
By comparison and for example, here in England I was quoted a cost of £ 90.00 p ( ninety pounds sterling ) just to see a dental nurse ( not the orthodontist himself ) to determine whether or not the orthodontist
could make a small brace for my front bottom teeth to pull them into line.

Those of us who are lucky enough to receive ( so-called free treatment , although we have to pay by compulsory deduction of  National Insurance from our salaries at source ) dental treatment on the National Health Service, do so at our peril. So called qualified British dentists, just want to extract teeth ( although implantology is practised here in the UK. , only the rich and famous can afford it - it is certainly not available on the NHS. Just to give you an example of cost, I was given a quote for one implant £ 2.000 p. ( two thousand pounds sterling ), having paid for a consultation.

I have lived abroad I can assure you that the standard of British dentistry is, with extreme generosity, appalling - even the " bog - standard - dentistry " available is quite unacceptable - NHS. dentist here, 
just want to extract teeth and replace them with dentures

I have received feedback from Dr. Dieter Rahtje and Dr. Isabelle Rathje ourlining the four part plan of treatment recommended for me - I shall most definately be in contact with you and them when I have fully understood an planned accordingly to return to Lübeck for treatment, which I believe will be of considerable benefit to me and most importantly, the specialist treatment I need, at the right price.

I certainly look forward to our next meeting

yours sincereley
