238: Does Surgery Actually Work? (ft. Dr Ian Harris)

from The General Muscle Podcast · host Lawrence Grieve

Dr. Ian Harris joins The General Muscle Podcast for a deep discussion on evidence-based medicine, questionable medical practices and the realities of modern healthcare. The conversation explores why some common surgeries have been abandoned while others continue despite limited evidence, why people improving after surgery doesn’t necessarily mean the surgery “worked,” and what questions patients should ask before going under the knife. The episode also dives into the rise of advanced health screening and the problem of overtesting. Thank you for listening!
