What’s the deal with all these Laser Back Surgery Ads on the Internet?

If you have wondered about the new technology in back pain treatment. Read this below and check out the link to the Bloomberg business article.
The “deal” is a huge advertising scheme that has created a higher profit percentage than Google.  Between 2006 and 2009, Laser Spine profited $99 million performing spinal surgeries in their clinics. That’s a lot of money! If they are that successful financially, wouldn’t you think their surgeries are incredibly successful, restoring their patient to full, active lives? Read the Bloomberg Business article to find out…
For decades there have been studies published warning that the outcomes with back surgery are not as good as advertised. This appears to be another new technology that will cause more harm than good. Sometimes there is no "quick fix" to your back pain. Take a look at this spine-health post on FBBS (Failed back surgery syndrome).
