Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter developed a non-surgical treatment for orthopedic issues over three years. Many patients can recover without incisions, though some still need traditional surgery. The method offers an alternative for those who might otherwise go under the knife.
That method, that proprietary method that Josh has developed over the last 3 years, that's— he doesn't have to do surgery because guess what? His patients get better without it.
There's always going to be a percent of people who are gonna benefit from an orthopedic surgery.
Mm-hmm. Definitely.
There are, there are, but if you look at the surgeries that we do now, for a lot of different reasons, a good percent of them maybe even 30 and 40% are not necessary. Either not necessary at all or not necessary now. As of 2018, about 33 to 36% of knee replacements in particular were done unnecessarily. Wow. Which means the joint wasn't ready for surgery. And this leads to younger and younger people getting surgery, which leads to more and more downstream problems with health.
