@generalorthomd That’s just heartbreaking to hear. There is little evidence that this is reliable or safe. I agree that he needed someone to step up and just be honest with the patient/the family about timelines and expectations. Now he’s way worse off than if he had just rehabbed.
@jointdocShields@generalorthomd@rkh_md Personally I’ve found it easy to use and maintain. Cleaning is no big deal - but it does need to be cleared of excess water and grounds waste a little more than I would like. But it’s really a solid option.
