@surgerytimes so long as you all actually give proper informed consent and not hide the side effects that have been known about sympathetomy for over 200 years. There are about 2-3 notorious surgeons in the USA that are selling this surgery for almost anything. They are completely unethical and are leaving a huge trail of hurt people. they know they are protected by the system and the wavier you sign. ETS has many known side effects. Many.
@outOFthePITT ok, i thought you meant surgery in general. I agree this surgery has generated a lot of controversies. My experience has shown that it should be offered to selected people for good results.
