Doctors: OK, so just some are bullies

12 October 2006

As it’s our 300th E-news bulletin (hooray), we thought it was appropriate to make a timely apology. A few doctors, who are sick and tired of being tarred with the same brush, have taken us to task for our heavy-handed approach.

We did it last week when we pointed out that doctors are bullies. In fact, we do it most weeks.

But, they say, not all doctors are bullies. Some are, for sure, but they’re not (the ones writing in, that is), and nor are their friends.

To be serious for a moment, they are right. There are some doctors who are seeking out better healing paradigms than the drug-based one they’ve been taught.

To those, therefore, we unreservedly apologise, and hope they keep fighting the good fight. To the rest, well, you know who you are.
