I believe your intentions were good, but surely you have to see how quacks will latch onto that soundbite and declare it to be The Last Word? IMO,we're way overdue for real experts to stop tiptoeing around the elephant in the room and start addressing CAM for the BS it is.
You rely on news articles to direct your practice? News article like this is not "evidence". They are as bad evidence when they retell stories of tragic deaths as they are when they recount miraculous cures.

Haha. No. Just like I don't let absence of evidence direct practice.

Glad to hear :) And please do remember that for terminal patients who wish to try to prolong their lives beyond what SoC can offer, the best bet is a treatment for which there is an absence of evidence to support its use.

Also, a legal investigation by the California Medical Board is not the same as sensationalized news stories.

It was more than that. The San Diego attorney general investigated, indicted, and prosecuted Robert O. Young for all the crimes for which he was ultimately convicted. Compare that to patient testimonials that are poorly sourced and spread on quack websites.
