“Patients and physicians need options to address early to moderate stage disc degeneration. Currently, many of these patients find themselves in a holding pattern, in limbo between prolonged, marginally effective conservative care and major surgical intervention. Our hope is that the Wallis device will provide relief to those patients and stop them from progressing toward total disc replacement or fusion.”

“The good physician treats the disease; the great physician treats the patient who has the disease”
William Osler
“A physician who treats himself has a fool for a patient.”
“assessed, evaluated, treated, had a plan for follow-up care that was discussed between the physician, the nurse, the patient and the family, and was discharged appropriately.”
Lynn Olson
“A careful physician, before he attempts to administer a remedy to his patient, must investigate not only the malady of the man he wishes to cure, but also his habits when in health, and his physical constitution.”
Marcus Tullius Cicero
“Initially, we envision this new test could be used as a supplement to PSA. A physician might suggest a patient with an elevated PSA have this test before a biopsy to better determine whether it's a cancerous or benign condition. In the future, I think this could replace PSA.”
