You're saying he spent years researching and developing a surgical procedure that targets what he identified as a new site of compression (not to mention creating a new method of testing for said compression), yet has no more than a pedestrian knowledge of the anatomy of the very nerve involved?! Sorry, but my two cents is, that simply doesn't make any sense!pianogal wrote:Dellon is just learning how to do PNE surgeries and is flying by the seat of his pants. Most of what he learned he learned via emails with patients like me and Ali... he is better at the dorsal surgery which he pioneered, but as far as his opinion on ligaments, he is as new to this as a new pne'er
The insurance issue isn't the debate here.AliPasha1 wrote:he should be kind and generous enough to take insurance to help all of us out.
At no point did I say Dellon, or any other doctor, was a God. I said he's a doctor, with years of experience in the field, and as such it's untrue to say he came by his PNE knowledge by way of e-mail exchanges w. forum members (he came by it through medical school, years of research, and practice in the field!).AliPasha1 wrote:Doctors aren't gods either and they have to learn it from one source or the other.
As I said in my earlier post, I don't really want to get embroiled in this debate. I think by now it's clear to everyone how you feel about the subject. But I still haven't seen indisputable evidence yet that severing the ligaments causes pelvic instability (there are some anecdotal reports, but that's not the same thing). If it makes you any happier though, personally I wouldn't let anyone cut my ligaments, just to be on the safe side.AliPasha1 wrote:ligaments do play an important part because they were created for a purpose to provide stability to the structure of the Pelvis
Also...this is speculation. Unless he told you that specifically, you have no way of knowing why he charges what he charges (maybe he's got high rent, maybe he has a large staff, maybe he's in debt to the mob, etc.).AliPasha1 wrote:The reason that he charges such inflated rates is because he believes that his success rates are higher than 80%.
