Functional Medicine: is a form of alternative medicine which proponents say focuses on interactions between the environment and the gastrointestinal, endocrine, and immune systems, but competitors have described it as "pseudoscientific silliness" and quackery.
This presentation discusses the advantages and disadvantages of robotic surgery. The initial goals for a robotic prostatectomy will be discussed as well as patient expectations and outcomes.&...
