The following information is based on a report originally published by A Midwestern Doctor. Key details have been streamlined and editorialized for clarity and impact. Read the original report here.
Meet Dr. Johnny Delashaw.
He looks like your regular, friendly neurosurgeon. But if you were to have back pain, this man would be your worst enemy.
Dr. Delashaw quickly became a multi-millionaire as Seattle’s “star neurosurgeon,” not because he helped patients, but because he turned spinal fusions into a literal ATM machine.
Patients never needed the surgeries. Complications soared, and staff quit. But money soared even higher, so he was protected—until he was caught.
The truth is, Delashaw is not an outlier—he’s the blueprint for how the entire spinal-surgery industry really works.
And once you hear what happened to his patient, Talia, it will make your blood boil.
Spinal pain is one of the biggest medical cash cows in America.
The system doesn’t just mismanage back and neck pain… it literally profits from making it worse.
Weakened ligaments are the root cause of many spinal problems. When they fail, joints wear down, discs bulge, nerves get irritated, and muscles clamp down.
The entire spine becomes a war zone.
So strengthening ligaments seems like an obvious course of action, right?
Yes. Unless your goal isn’t healing.
