The doctor didn't elaborate about which bone drugs in our conversation and I didn't ask especially since I was there for my bursitis. Admittedly I was stunned with his view on bone meds since every other health care professional I've told about my osteoporosis strongly advised me to take the meds.

But it did occur to me that orthopedic surgeons are on the receiving end of osteoporatic patients who fracture since they're the ones that ultimately "fix" the problem of broken bones, so it's not surprising that they may be more biased against a medication that actually caused the problem in the first place.
