I saw two patients today who came in after they had smart lipo done by other doctors. TWO PATIENTS. They both were upset with their bellies. They had the same story:
“I had fat on my belly. I saw Dr. X and he promised me he could remove the fat and that my skin would tighten

I was checking the news tonight before heading to bed, and saw the Yahoo teaser: America’s most stressful jobs. Of course, I was curious what were the top ones. Police? Firefighter?

It is nice to see a regulatory agency regulating.
I frequently blog about the people who use gimmicks and marketing, make false claims, and do dangerous things… When did medicine become something done in a mall? Where anyone can claim anything without proving it does what it says?
