Robert Mendelsohn, MD, 哈哈
Mendelsohn was an anti-vaccination activist, an opinion widely rejected by the medical community.[9]
His book Confessions of a Medical Heretic was negatively reviewed in the Journal of the American Medical Association, the reviewer noted that "the technique of describing one specific situation or case history and then generalizing to all situations or all case histories is a dangerous one, and such extrapolations are carefully avoided by all responsible scientists. However, this approach of Mendelsohn's supplies the grist for his mill— and its faulty."[10]
Quackwatch has noted that Mendelsohn "engaged in irresponsible criticism of the medical profession and science-based health care during most of his medical career."[11]
Nutritionist Kurt Butler described Mendelsohn as a "Whiney-voiced crackpot who made himself rich and famous by leading the bash-doctors movements now in vogue. Mendelsohn, now deceased, made a career of telling Americans that their doctors are out to rob and kill them. He urged everyone to avoid doctors and go instead to chiropractors, naturopaths and health fraud store clerks for their health care."[12]
