I looked seriously at the neodisc. It has been around for several years and has not created too much buzz in the industry. Many of the doctors I work with are always looking for the next promising technology. The neodisc is interesting for several reasons, but there are compromises in the design that give pause.

I sure hope that the neodisc naysayers are wrong, but after careful investigation, I elected not to consider it in my case.
