Believe the opposite of what is on quackwatch - they are big time liars and big time litigators and they lose their litigation. If Quackwatch is against something, I check it out because it's probably pretty good. I have found some great things from what they denigrate.

The neurologist has his license on probation.

If your daughter's life was on line, would you choose such a doctor to testify on your behalf?

If Terri is not in vegetative state, why not find two neurologists who would testify without creating controversy?

The neurologist presented by the Schindlers did not help the Schindlers' case at all:

In Greer's order, the Pinellas probate judge labeled Hammesfahr a "self-promoter," who testified that he had treated patients worse off than Mrs. Schiavo yet "offered no names, no case studies, no videos and no test results to support his claim."

In short, the judge wrote in the nine-page order, he needed "something more than a belief" that some new treatment could restore Mrs. Schiavo's faculties "so as to significantly improve her quality of life. There is no such testimony, much less a preponderance of evidence to that effect."
