I’m sorry to break your bubble. I really am. I have seen this sort of behavior before. When I was a Resident we even had a name for it. “Brucelize”. There was a practice that did all kinds of stuff. Send patients stuff like this email so they could tell each other “this guy is the greatest doctor in the world.” In reality all three of them were hacks none of us admired. We used to call them the “Three Stooges”. I know. This is inside baseball and I never mentioned it to any of my actual patients. They were great examples of “What not to be.”
Is that where you learned to favor political inclinations over potential treatments for worldwide, economy-crippling pandemics, when there’s good clinical evidence that the treatment works?
