An Evidence-Based Approach to the Effectiveness of Surgery

An Evidence-Based Approach to the Effectiveness of Surgery

This episode features the first of Dr. David Hanscom’s two interviews with orthopedic surgeon and researcher Dr. Ian Harris. Dr. Harris, the author of Surgery, The Ultimate Placebo, discusses his evidence-based approach for evaluating the effectiveness of a variety of surgeries, ranging from arthroscopic knee surgery to spine surgery to the implanting of cardiac stents. His research shows that many types of surgery are performed on patients for whom they are not effective. Visit: https://backincontrol.com for more information. Download a transcript of this podcast.
