On this episode, I am going to be completing my series on why I think “Orthopedics is a Scam.”  If you have not listened to Parts 1-3, I highly recommend going back and listening to them first (linked below in Further Listening.)  Part 4 Is the quick and dirty on imaging and what you should know before you get your next scan.
