The complaint also says Gampel and his company placed “enormous pressure” on their staff to perform invasive procedures: “As Modern Vascular Corporate’s Chief Medical Officer Steve Berkowitz told a reporter for the Arizona Republic, ‘If you run a pizza joint and you’re not selling enough pizzas, you’re not going to stay in business.’”
