    Which is again why it is best to refer to the bell curve of information when formulating policy.
    A small percentage of rubbish doctors will exist in the extremes where also other marginal viewpoints exist. That is where the wellness industry thrives, the land of "i'm a qualified medical professional and you should ignore the mainstream and buy my supplements". It is also where the bad decision makers exist.

    So if you want to stack the odds in your favour, go where the consensus exists. That is where the noise gets filtered out. For sure, it also means that maybe some amazing lifesaving alternative therapy may not quite have made it's case just yet, but when you know how dangerous it can be to get a misdiagnosis or bad prescription, why on earth would you willingly chose to run with all the mad twitter and bitchute stuff that operates purely in the murky margins of accountability?

    It would be no different to choosing not to listen to a structural engineer because you had a bad experience with one once, and saw a video on youtube that said you could knock a supporting wall out safely so long as you used small taps with a rubber coated hammer.
