Goodman rocks! A person would be very fortunate to be under his leadership.

Good reputation, but I am a little uncertain about the Physiatric approach to pedicle screw placement.

respectfully, potential applicants should be very wary of this program. there are significant systemic problems with the program and the training. i will not get into specifics, just be very careful

I interviewed there 5 years ago for fellowship and this was my impression as well.

Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Insertion ...WTF!!!!??????

I assume the OP meant Trufuse or a bone dowel insertion at the facet joints for facet arthropathy (NOTHING beyond a Grade 1 spondylolisthesis)....pedicle screws is getting into quack country...unless someone wants to educate me

Mostl likely DePuy Perpos perc. lumbar fusion system. I can't fathom even thinking of doing this due to potential liability issues and lack of appropriate candidates.
