Considering Surgery? READ THIS!
If you’re considering Surgery, you must read this!
This article is written by a Sydney surgeon Dr Harris, who has come forward to explain that he has performed many surgeries in his career that he knew didn’t work, or were not clinically indicated in the first place.
His excuse is that patients come to him and “Demand” he did something, and he felt compelled to do unnecessary surgery. Dr Steven Parnis, vice president of the AMA, said this issue was relevant to the entire medical profession, not just surgery.
Dr Harris compiled a list of operations that has questionable benefits; they include
•Spinal Fusion
•Stem cell injections
•Tennis elbow surgery
•Cardiac stenting
•Appendectomy
•Knee arthroscopy
•Epidural steroid injections
•Caesarean section
•Spinal cord stimulators.
