As many of you know, I made a declaration last year that I was no longer prepared to continue tolerating what passes for normal orthodox medicine. Now don’t get me wrong. There is a lot of good in the world of medical science and practice. Such good science is being done, advances appear daily, and […]
Panic! Panic! Panic!
No, really, no! Yes, there is a corona virus on the loose, and yes, it is being declared an emergency, it might also soon be called a pandemic, and governments all over the world are then going to prove their re-electability by proving how focused they are, caring, proactive, sensible and stable, a safe pair […]
What am I waiting for?
Every year we are reminded of the passing of time, and we are encouraged to make resolutions for the coming year. And every year we make grand decisions which last a week or so, and vanish into the great void of unfulfilled desires. Does anyone think that is a healthy thing to do? I suspect […]
World is at a Turning Point
What do doctors stand for? Every survey suggests that doctors and nurses stand at the top or near the top for trustworthiness. “Trust me, I am a doctor …” has become a byword and also a parody for trustworthiness.
