If any of that voodoo works, it will siphon the crazy people out of my clinic who don't need surgery anyway

So yeah, I hope this takes off in a BIG way

It is telling that none of the board of directors at that company are orthopaedic surgeons.

Lol, they are guys that didn’t get into ortho, now they are duping people into thinking they do ortho of some kind.

This is the guy that’s running it, he offers a fellowship in this BS. I personally know two of his fellows that now work for him, both failed to match ortho for two years in a row, if that tells you anything.

In five years, endovascular knee replacements will be standard of care.

I was part of a team that worked with one of the Board of Directors for this outfit. His clinic was essentially people coming in to pay cash for their 'choice' of biologic cocktail to be injected into whatever joint that was ailing them. The intake paperwork was like a menu.

That's not to say interventional ortho isn't intriguing...but you can't have the cart before the horse.

It looks like that Dr. Don Buford, who played for the Orioles, is ortho.
