Interesting that the doc that fixed my DH knee made over $871,000 LAST YEAR ALONE ... above and beyond his salary by getting a "kickback" for using a special device from a certain maker.
I had a cardio doc recently tell me that they give meds before considering a procedure that is known to fix a problem. You can be sure I am getting info to see if he is getting "kickbacks" on these meds. I did not take the meds nor do I like the doctor. I requested info about different docs.
