“Lawyers have already cited Everett’s treatment as relevant to other people’s potential litigation. A blog entry published in September by Allen, Flatt, Ballidis & Leslie, a law firm in Newport Beach, Calif., put it this way: “The immediate choices that these doctors make can determine whether a patient dies, lives or ever walks again. Clients with spinal injuries look to their attorneys to stay on top of the latest and best innovation for recovery.””

Of course. Now I can be sued for not giving my patients iced saline. Great system. Let’s hear how the lawyers who monitor this blog defend this.

The big clue here is that the treatment was endorsed by Katie Couric and CBS. Almost nothing they report about medicine is true.

The big clue is if it works and makes sense or not-and in this case it does . So get your head out of your uptight ass and use it. Kevin Everett is right and that is the only point that is important. As was Dr. Atkins with his diet BTW.
