Re: Pathguy a paid anti Alternative healthcare misinformant
A real doctor wow! Yes and connected directly to stephan Barret
Any proof to your claim?
He is nothing like Barrett, who ignores any and all evidence showing that alternatives are for real. He even states that the evidence for alternatives is growing. But he also finds that the liver flush proponets attack him as well without providing any proof to their claims as highlighted below.

I'm a board-certified anatomic and clinical pathologist and operator of the largest one-person medical information site on the web. As a pathologist, it's my job (among others) to examine tissue, tell what's the matter, and predict the behavior of the disease and response to therapy. Like most other pathologists, I'm extremely successful at this. Like most other pathologists, I take a lot of pride in this. (Call us arrogant if you like. I am an honest physician who engages in public debates. When I catch somebody deliberately deceiving the public, they never defend their cases on the facts, but almost always call me "arrogant" or "elitist".) And if I screw up even once, I'm in MAJOR trouble.
Unlike many M.D.'s, I'm open-minded about what's known as "alternative medicine", i.e., therapies that are not recognized by mainstream medicine. During the 1980's, I reviewed alternative medicine and found there was little to recommend. As the alternative medical community has responded to pressure to defend its claims by the usual methods of science, some areas have improved.
This site aims to let the public know what empirical evidence is available for various alternative remedies, especially studies published in refereed journals. This will enable people who must make decisions to rely on more than anecdotes and advertising.
