130,000 diabetics have a leg amputation annually in the United States. If the best tactics were used, that number could be just over 40,000. Usual care is the medical equivalent of marching soldiers into machine guns. Why don’t we make the required changes to avoid maiming these patients?
Let’s face it. The 19th Century legacy American Medicine has failed. The “expert opinions driven, unscientific, evidence and fact denying” clinical guidelines are not based on patients’ best interest, rather based on how to deliver maximum profits for the medical industrial complex. It costs $4.5 trillion dollars annually plus another $3.5 trillion dollars annually due to loss of productivity and premature deaths. All is leaves us is it’s msg dubious distinction of being the third leading cause of deaths in America. It must be demolished, Bill.
