I just watched this, and I agree with most of what he says. Especially about the Canadian government. They will be outed for the incompetents they are, around the world, one doctor at a time.

Thanks. I looked all over and found written descriptions but couldn't find a picture. Some people are better with google than I am I gues.

Hopefully in 3 or 4 years he can add venous angioplasty for CCVSI to his list of specialties. But he is right, that will take at least 3-4 years.
