@realDrHartzler I have many analogies. Most common: If a normal knee is a 10/10. A TKA at best will be an 8. If you are a 7 right now you probably won’t be happy w/surgery and months of rehab to improve 1 point. But if you’re a 4 and then go to an 8, that is a 100% improvement.

I think my life would be easier if PCPs would order weight bearing xrays, try at least one week of an OTC medication and start patients with a BMI over 35 on a weight loss program prior to sending them to me for a surgical consult. Is that too much to ask?

Remember the clackers toy? One of my silly projects during the covid shutdown. No fractures with repeated use-a home wear simulator. @ceramtec #orthotwitter

@ProfDavidHunter I’m hoping my new book can make a tiny dent in preventing the unnecessary MRI. I hope patients understand,but also PCPs if they read it. I explain why WB X-rays are needed and why MRIs are rarely necessary.( fx,tumor,inf,ON)

Not sure if others have used this example. I started referring to looking for a concentric mortise of the reamer in the acetabulum to explain to our fellows when it is eccentric and they could be at risk of reaming out the wall. Common w/certain wear patterns or stiff hips.

@DrDimitrios Too often students enter med school w/altruism,compassion& happiness. At some point(not sure if it’s in internship,residency or practice),those same people become cynical,emotionally drained&despondent.The feeling that as a doc you should suppress&override emotionally causes harm

@PTLauren1 @StressHoop @TCKMed @generalorthomd @NaanDerthaal It only works to pay for the fancy car the snake oil salesman drives. As far as the arthritic knee, it’s still arthritic.
