Overtreatment in the United States - PMC.

Combating The Growing Rate Of Unnecessary Surgeries

Of course, it never happens, but the government organization charged with keeping up with such things says it is. Forbes Magazine and about 6,000 other sources also say it is. Your experience versus their data, hmm. I am an M.D. and have many friends who are. The first person I met when I came to the States was a trauma surgeon. He says it does; a single person's experience is meaningless when collating data.
