Scam Alert - a patient notified me that a facebook ad is circulating of me in a CTV interview promoting some king of gummy or Glucocare pills. They got scammed out of $300 and then they took over her credit card. Be aware of deep fakes - they are everywhere

What if instead of pushing vaccines for COVID-19, the government instead had promoted the importance of ‘metabolic health?” To reduce the severity of COVID-19 disease. What if our elders had been told to exercise more, eat healthy, control blood sugars, drink alcohol less, eat

I am amazed by how many doctors have been fooled into believing that providing substandard care for more patients while sacrificing time with friends and family is more noble than being more effective with fewer patients in DPC.
