I too was thinking about the deal , what else does it mean?
Surgeons rank above a fair chunk of society in having political clout.
We have a group of entrepreneurial surgeons who have jumped the gun on FDA approval and bought a rather large chunk of a company purported to be on its last legs.
Who do you pay attention to ?
The unbelievably trustworthy fact based neutral influencing media of today
Or those Hippocratic oath swearing , long white coat , absent minded , life saving bunch of guys and gals who got marginally higher grades than you in every level of education you ever attended.
What are those crazy peeps thinking , in a few mere weeks of seeing those abysmal failed primary endpoints they’ve made an unsolicited approach to Si and Co.
“Hi, we’re a bunch of surgeons.
Who?
A bunch of surgeons from the USA. Surgcentre.
Never heard of you, I’m a heart guy , what do you lot do?
Oh, we do a bit of heart, but a tonne of back work , you know, spinal stuff, fair whack of joint work too. Can’t keep up really.
Right, so what’s the go.
We want in, have $100,000,000 , shave a bit off the top and we will pay cash,
Cash?
Yeah, we’re loaded- surgeons you see, a lot of surgeons.
Sounds interesting- do you blokes know anyone at the FDA?
Know em , geez, half of them are family.
Bryson here just spent a week sailing in the Bahamas with a whole bunch of them. They’re quite fun when the Dom Perignon starts flowing. one thing, please don’t call us just blokes.
Right, sorry, I’m just so tired lately- have a fair bit on.
So whaddaya reckon about getting the back jab approved with the FDA.
Dude, that’s why we’re here. Early bird gets the worm, gets the good grades, gets more homework done , becomes surgeons.
Right so you want the back stuff Rexy in your spinal clinics.
Yeah -absolutely. Plus we will use it for the heart too if that’s ok with you. No point fixing up a crook back and having someone die of a stroke or heart attack . We reckon it’s good for increasing returned visits to our clinics.
Oh- don’t get me started about keeping people alive! They keep going to the damn hospitals.
Alright , you guys, sorry, and gals , and others, are really smart. Not many people get it.
Yeah we all get it, pretty obvious really isn’t it. I mean those p values like c’mon man 0.0001, like what’s with that?!
We’re just happy that our stockbroking friends left school way way way before us. They don’t get it, we do , we’re surgeons, back specialists . Man- no pain for years- you are hilarious. Nice job. Going to save us a fortune on malpractice law suits, those spinal operations are doozies.
In fact
We’ve already come up with a marketing jingle .
Broken Heart, Frail Spine
One jab from us
and you’ll be fine
Thats brilliant- alright you’re in, love surgeons.
