...percent of those who have received the online survey have responded. As an incentive for completion, study participants can vote for one of four groups that will receive a $10,000 donation, a feature that Daniel L.

Two orthopedic surgeons, often four or five, will talk to you, examine you (and your x-rays) and then discuss your case in a sophisticated conference and decide on the best course of treatment - all for $45 ($175 if you live outside of the "neighborhood" - what used to be called Spanish Harlem.) I learned a good deal of what I know about treating patients there as a resident, and I've taught there ever since. A few have been there...
