    All patients search the internet - certainly before and probably after they have a consultation. Are there any particular web pages that make you life difficult with regards to their content? I'll put the first one out there.

    I saw a very pleasant chap who had all the classic signs of a chronic compartment syndrome. I told him I was going to refer him onto a colleague for dynamic intracompartment pressure testing so we could be certain. However after googling 'compartment syndrome' and clicking on a few subsequent links he ended up on the Wikipedia page for fasciotomy:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasciotomy

    Understandably he is now less than keen...
     
  2. Here is the website that I recommend for all my patients......:rolleyes:

    Mother of All Podiatric Websites
     
  3. LOL

    The one which irritates me is

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthotics

    Which devotes as much / more line space to Messirs Rothbart and Glaser than the rest of biomechanics put together! :mad:
