Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 25 ratings
  • Inconsistent topics and focus

    Topics are infrequently about improving the care of patients. Recent focus on equity and inclusion is another manifestation of social justice warriors taking over the practice of medicine and orthopedics. The problem is worse in Canada. Let’s focus on helping everyone get better and improving the care of patients through thoughtfully executed surgery. JBJS podcasts should focus on science and data instead of controversial social issues.

The Evolution of Geriatric Surgery, with special guest Dr. Julie Switzer, MD
Q: How would you advise someone early in their career who is considering focusing on geriatric fracture care?

Dsyphagia After Anterior Cervical Spine Surgery, with special guest Mark Pahuta
Q: Is this a clinically relevant question for your practice, and is a lumbar control group appropriate for comparison?
Marc suggests this is highly relevant for counseling patients and decision-making. He believes a matched cohort design is more appropriate than simply comparing to lumbar procedures, as it better isolates the effect of the anterior approach on dysphagia.
