HALF OF WHAT PHYSICIANS DO IS JUST PLAIN WRONG!

Hey, it's me! When the issue of “alternative medicine” comes up, skeptics often invoke some version of the cliche uttered by Michael Shermer not long ago in an interview before a panel discussion with Deepak Chopra and others on “The Nature of Reality”: “There is no such thing as alternative medicine. There’s just scientific medicine, and all the unproven stuff. What Deepak is promoting is a sort of alternative, complimentary medicine, and most of that is woo-woo.”
The insinuation, of course, is that “scientific medicine” has been proven. But as Wellsphere has written before , this just isn’t true. Most conventional medical practices are just as “unproven” as those Shermer dismisses as “woo-woo.”
WOO WOO!
