Medical Information

So . . . the anticipated larger reach has roused me from lassitude to mention that there really are excellent resources for medical information on the Internet. The Huffington Post offers a platform for a wonderfully diverse group of medical writers and I'm happy to be here.

I'd like to refer you to a site that should also be at the top of everyone's list.

Propublica.com lets you know which docs are being the most influenced by bribery. Worth a look.

Dr. Gordon is a practicing pediatrician with a select clientele including that well known scientist/celebrity Jenny McCarthy...whose book is the "bible" for anti-vaccination adherents and practitioners of alternative/complementary "medicine".

I have visited Dr. Gordon's website and he continually slams physicians who have developed vaccines to protect infants from some dreadful, life-threatening diseases. In spite of his credentialing (FAAP) from the American Academy of Pediatrics he does not follow their guidelines or the guidelines from the CDC for timely and complete childhood immunizations.

For accurate, science-based information about immunizations visit Immunize.org website.

How is drug companies paying physicians to give talks to other healthcare professionals about their products "bribery"? It's called advertising.
