For quality experts, a point of tension with ProPublica
Recently, I was speaking with a less is more advocate. He used his superior knowledge of statistics — he had an MPH — to debunk randomized controlled trials. We discussed overdiagnosis, overtreatment, and the shakiness of medical sciences. We spoke about measuring the quality of physicians. I remarked that quality metrics have as much evidence as Garcinia Cambogia — we had just laughed about Dr. Oz. I expected a chuckle. Instead, he became distinctly uncomfortable and, in a solemn tone, lectured me about the Institute of Medicine (IOM) report, “To Err is Human.” The physician, a bulldog of evidence-ba...

Is ProPublica the Paul Revere of Transparency?

Dr. Oz shouldn’t be fired. And here’s why.
If I could invite four people for dinner, alive or dead, they would be Mark Twain, William Shackleton, Christopher Hitchens and Homer Simpson (Bart’s dad). If Mehmet Oz turned up with a bag of Garcinia cambogia, I would excuse myself. Few things drive me to the abyss more reliably than the banality of status updates on Facebook and the monotony of health freaks. I would rather face the aftermath of vindaloo followed by industrial strength Picolax than watch an episode of the Dr. Oz Show. Continue reading ...

After serious self-reflection, is there redemption for Dr. Oz?
Recently, Dr. Oz has come under scrutiny for his information on a number supplements that he alleges help with weight loss. Over the past 2 years, he has presented information about 3 diet supplements: green coffee extract, raspberry ketones and garcinia cambogia. After reviewing the available information, I can not agree that there is compelling scientific information to recommend these products. I am a bit bewildered that Mehmet Oz, a very well trained cardiothoracic surgeon, currently a professor of surgery and former full-time academic physician at Columbia University, would repeatedly go out on such a limb. Continue r...

Dr. Oz’s evolution as America’s foremost promoter of quackery continues apace
