I’m not sure what you are referring to, but that feels to me like a nonsense generalization. I’m no doctor, so my knowledge of back and knee surgeries is limited to my very own experience.

First of all, I can’t see how my surgeries could ever be not successful. The operation in itself is pretty simple, but incredibly bothersome and it won’t fix my knees, it will just prevent them from getting worse with age. But still it would be hard to fuck it up when it comes to the surgery. But again I don’t know about others.

And second, the doctor was absolutely awesome, although a previous one was a piece of shit that I should have sued for malpractice but I’m not from the USA nor was in the USA so sueing doesn’t come to me naturally and since nothing bad happened I let it go, nowadays I’d have been far stricter, but that was a bad doctor, nothing to do with low success rate of knee surgeries. But that made me abandon that asshole and search for a new doctor and I’ll just say he was incredibly nice, easy to deal with and very professional. And later on I discovered he is also a huge name in the field of knee health issues to the point where many professional athletes go to him when they have anything. Don’t know if that skews my perspective but its hard to think how anything could have gone wrong.

Still higher success rate than homeopathy
