How to use procedure in a sentence?

  1. David Brooks:

    To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure; to explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy.

  2. Saj Khan:

    Dr Homer said. The laser treats only the iris and does not enter the pupil or treat any portion of the inside of the eye where the nerves affecting the vision are located. The company is still in the fundraising stage but hopes to have completed clinical trials within several years. And the cost of turning your brown eyes blue ? Dr Homer says Stroma Medical would charge around $ 5,000( £ 3,120) for the procedure. Industry skepticism Industry reaction to the process has been muted. Ophthalmologists who deal with people's eyes, Dr Homer concedes, have every right to be skeptical for the simple fact they are dealing with one of the most sensitive organs in the human body. Saj Khan, an ophthalmologist at the London Eye Hospital, told CNN the treatment raised some red flags. ' The main concern with any procedure that involves releasing pigment inside the eye is that the pigment can clog up the normal drainage channels which can in turn cause the pressure inside the eye to go up, if that happens significantly enough, for long enough, it's how patients develop glaucoma.

  3. George Frost Kennan:

  4. Genevieve Schaefer:

    Schaefer says, adding that Genevieve Schaefer provided Genevieve Schaefer doctor’s office with Genevieve Schaefer new policy information and had a total of three appointments : Genevieve Schaefer annual physical in February, the IUD procedure in March and a follow-up in April. It was n’t until December that Genevieve Schaefer received a bill — for $ 902. I was charged for all three appointments, including the IUD and procedure, as services that were n’t covered under my plan due to my doctor being out-of-network.

  5. Joost A. Merloo:

    Psychologically, it is important to understand that the simple fact of being interviewed and investigated has a coercive influence. As soon as a man is under cross-examination, he may become paralyzed by the procedure and find himself confessing to deeds he never did. In a country where the urge to investigate spreads, suspicion and insecurity grow.
