‘Why don’t you do homeopathy at this surgery?’ she asked.
I don’t normally get involved in arguments about homeopathy, because people who want to argue in its favour are, by definition, people who cannot manage a rational argument, but she was provoking me.
‘Because it’s a crock of shite,’ I told her.

A message from Dr Crippen  Please, click on the photo for more details and more photos The best way we can help find Madeleine McCann is by keeping her in the public eye. I ask every blogger who sees this picture to display it prominently on their front page. Maddie McCann is in the news at present, but she is only the latest of many children to go missing or be abducted. Please also visit the MISSING KIDS website |

Have you ever considered fobbing off your most irritating worried-well regulars by referring them to a local homeopathist? (at their own expense).
This would not be true endorsement and would at last enable homeopathy to make a valuable contribution.
indeed, just the business me and a mate are putting together. it's a fucking dream.
Also, what could be less demanding than 'MOT healthchecks'. Statistically you are looking at someone with the square root of fuck all wrong with them. I can do that all day.
ok, so maybe resources are diverted awaqy from actual sick people. But that idea would just confuse the Blu Labour arsebandits running this pile of shite.
I can imagine nothing more mind-numbingly boring than doing health-checks on paranoid alternative-medicine quaffing paranoid malcontents.
Hee Hee!! I wonder what Her Majesty and HRH would think of this attack on their favourite "alternative therapy"?
now I'm all for trying new therapies.....amd giving things a chance, but some of the bullshite that people are paying for theses days is just laughable!
Fair play Dr Peverley
Here's a suggestion (from my admittedly non-doctor though medical spouse perspective).
Virgin Health polyclinics, I read, are going to offer "add-on" health-related services, all under one shiny roof. This will no doubt include all sort of nonsensical "complementary" therapies, given their popularity and excellent profit margins. The latest rumour was that the GPs these will be on a profit-share from all the other services.
So the perfect solution offers itself: all patients who want to exercise their choice by embracing magic will gravitate to Virgin Polyclinics where they can be seemlessly transferred to friendly Snake Oilers of all stripes. GPs who are happy to use sympathetic magic as well as medicine can staff the Branson Centres.
And saner people like Dr Phil can get on with treating the less deluded.
Satisfied customers all round.
Haven't there been lawsuits against the snakeoil types by victims/relatives of same?
Thought for the day - contingency fee ambulance chasing lawyers may have their uses
