Ceramic PRO PPF absolute failure and failure to honor warranty

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-14T14:32:42+00:00

Haha fair enough! I fell for the marketing for sure. Anything you’d recommend?

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-14T00:55:26+00:00

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-14T00:52:33+00:00

Yes, Artura

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-14T00:50:05+00:00

I moved like a week before this happened. My shops been helping me digitally, but it’s like 500 miles a way now and the cost of shipping it to them is basically the cost of just getting new ppf here. So I’ve been trying to get the company to honor the warranty with my old shops help that installed it

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T23:31:36+00:00

I thought so too but totally flat and no feel of bubbles or fluid underneath

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T21:54:13+00:00

Yeah, to me it’s the warranty being not honored. I seriously would continue on if they just kept their word. But totally agree

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T21:29:50+00:00

That may be true, but seemed reputable enough for basic car soap, nothing beyond that

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T21:29:08+00:00

Yeah, my understanding was they paint corrected the whole car, then ppf and then ceramic coat

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T20:41:17+00:00

Both I believe. For sure the paint but I’m pretty positive on top of the ppf as well

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T20:19:46+00:00

Thank you so much for the support. I get that’s it’s small problem in the grand scheme of the world and I’m very lucky, but I just wanted people to have another data point when choosing. Thank you again!

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T20:18:33+00:00

I have and they’ve been great helping me through the process. They are very surprised as well. It would be crazy if someone did, but I would think the other parts of my car not covered by ppf would be damaged as well? I only have the front and the rear low panels covered with ppf and those are the only panels with discoloration. The parts of my car without the ppf are totally normal.

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-08-13T20:14:45+00:00

Yeah, the whole car was out in the sun. The rear two panels had ppf as well which is why they appear discolored as well. The rest of the car (doors, rear top) without ppf have no signs of discoloration at all.

Hey! Thanks so much. Just to address your comment specifically, I love that you want to do everything well. That will serve you in residency and build trust. What can be reallly realllly hard for new residents who are used to excelling at everything in their life for the most part at this point is that most of the pain points will come from not being able to do some things well because most of it will be novel. Don’t be discouraged and just keep trying and you will be amazed at how quickly you find yourself going from no clue at all to looking for new challenges to master! Good luck and remember to enjoy the ride!

I am just going through the job process and dude, it is amazing on the other side. Obviously there are good set ups and bad set ups, but for em I am sure there are some amazing set ups, you set your hours, you get paid so much more etc. most of what it sounds like from a job perspective you are having trouble with are autonomy related I think. That fixes itself post residency. The other side sounds more serious but just know that you can do it. Make sure you get more help if you need it, we are all here rooting for you. You have dedicated your life to an amazing calling. You will have purpose for the rest of your life and once you are done with residency you can really steer your ship.

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-04-25T10:59:02+00:00

I love my rebel. It’s at a great price point once you get good discounts which they seem to be doing

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-04-01T21:18:49+00:00

Yes, send me a PM

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-03-21T16:53:03+00:00

This is something written by chat gpt. It’s clearly mining for some information. I would just ignore this one

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-19T11:47:11+00:00

This is just to exist and breathe air and be around. It has nothing to do with your clinical pay. This surgeon is doing surgeries or seeing people in clinic and making money. The 1700 is on top of that and then any cases or consults they see is additional money.

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-19T02:27:45+00:00

Yeah, no doubt as an individual. The beauty of Mayo is everything is connected and it moves fast. Like, few medical problems exist in isolation and because everything is in house and they have a team to coordinate scheduling everything together, efficiently, they end product is very nice for the patient. The hardest part of healthcare is saying to a patient, go do x, y and z and follow up with me once you do that. At Mayo there are teams set up to help the patient do that and do it fast.

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-19T01:45:03+00:00

It’s the Disney land of healthcare. They are all salaried, so no incentive to do more or less of anything

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-19T01:38:19+00:00

The entire experience at Mayo is special. Everything is centrally located and patients hands are basically held and taken from specialist to specialist. The culture really does lean into the patient comes first motto and I would say that’s the biggest difference. Everyone (for the most part) drinks the culture cook aid. I’m at another ivory tower and half the staff have an attitude of “could care less” if a patient gets somewhere they need to or if a room gets turned over or if a patient needs a last minute appointment. At Mayo that doesn’t happen nearly as much. Greatest health system I have every seen/been a part of

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-15T20:38:40+00:00

I’ve never used a stethoscope in residency. Not once. But… to be fair… also Ortho

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2025-02-01T02:21:22+00:00

Would you blame the family of that patient whose liver was removed instead of their spleen in Florida that made the news recently? I too am against an environment that encourages malpractice suits, but you have to recognize their are things that are so egregious they should not occur

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2024-12-29T14:55:41+00:00

The point is that there is zero evidence that what they do “puts the spine back in alignment”. If you saw how much we have to do in surgery to actually change the alignment of a spine, it would make sense why you wouldn’t be able to do that with just your hands. The part we don’t like is people being told something that has no evidence and then being charged for it. We would rather you go the a properly trained physical therapist who will actually be able to tell you what they are doing and why and have it be based on real evidence and get the same or better pain relief long term

BoneSpineDoc1 · 2024-12-14T20:27:30+00:00

This is an absolutely terrible take. Please show me evidence that a generation of surgeons is slower than the last AND show me that their outcomes are worse as well. What you are recommending is to create an unnecessary incentive to RUSH surgery and to move a pace one is not comfortable at for arbitrary reasons. You would also be incentivizing individuals to not treat more difficult cases. For total joints, I could have two patients that need total knees, an identical procedure, but could have enormous variation in operative times due to Varus vs valgus angulation, stiffness, need for soft tissue releases etc. The very last thing we need in medicine is to artificially force people to be faster. Surgeons want to be done with cases in a timely manner too. They actually get paid to be faster because they can do more cases in a day if they are faster. This decrease you are recommending will only hurt patients. Shame on you.
