Preamble: Many of the issues I bring to you are very small, yet each issue is just that, an issue. If you take care of the small issues, then you will be able to build and more importantly, focus on the bigger issues...a larger practice and more family time.

"Improper Nomenclature – Good Call”

This was reported as a left disc protrusion with superior migration. Not a bad call, however the nomenclature could have been better. It is an extruded disc with superior migration effacing the L4 nerve root. This patient needs an immediate neurosurgical consultation so that a collaborative treatment plan can be determined.
