- [x] He is a manipulative liar. He decides based on your age what the value of your next 30 years are and this determines the care you will receive. When he doesn’t want to waste time on those less worthy (formerly sports medicine) he lies and tells you the procedure is highly unsuccessful when in fact the success rate is 99%.. Out of one side of his mouth he says your bones are in great shape and out of the other side he says he won’t provide the care because at your age things wear out. If it’s in great shape…is it worn out? Then he says it’s not so bad, he has patients with amputations and he is VERY busy, he sees 50 patients a day. No time for you so don’t bother.
