Dr. David H. Gorski a/k/a D H Gorski a/k/a Gorski DH a/k/a Gorski D. a/k/a “Orac” a/k/a GorskGeek of University of Michigan, Wayne State University School of Medicine, Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, Alexander J. Walt Comprehensive Breast Center, American College of Surgeons Committee on Cancer, Institute for Science in Medicine, #sciencebasedmedicine, science based medicine, National Geographic’s (#NatGeo) scienceblogs, Respectful Insolence, @gorskon, @oracknows, @ScienceBasedMed “fame”, is a certifiable “Hack” 😷
He claims to believe in “science-based medicine”, but he so readily and easily bastardizes the term on his blogs and during his “talk” at The Amazing Meeting (TAM 2013) in July, about Stanislaw Burzynski, MD, PhD [1]: “Why We Fight (Part I): Stanislaw Burzynski Versus Science-Based Medicine” and the “Medical Cranks and Quacks” panel discussion, that it becomes painfully obvious, when Mark Crislip stated [2]:
——————————————————————
(37:00)
——————————————————————
“As a philosophical approach to medicine, I would probably say that 99% of doctors are not science-based“
——————————————————————
and:
——————————————————————
(37:25)
——————————————————————
“This table, is probably pretty much all of the science-based medicine docs in the United States” 😮
——————————————————————
Note: There were only 4 individual’s at the table, and Bob Blaskiewicz is NOT a doctor, he’s a QUACK 😄
——————————————————————
The world might indeed need more Mark Crislip™ , but I think it needs some more insolence for “The Skeptics™” 🙂
So, in that spirit, the videos, recently released by the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF), of Bob Blaskiewicz, GorskGeek, and some key SBM players that you’ve come to know and love for their transparency, deserve some of what’s mentioned by Mark Crislip at:
——————————————————————
25:00
——————————————————————
1. Embarrassment 😳
2. Ridicule 😁
3. Education 😐
😉
David Gorski makes the stupendous remark that Burzynski “could treat anyone he wanted” in the clinical trials 😖
How asinine 😝
——————————————————————
(18:20)
——————————————————————
David Gorski then has the temerity to suggest that Miller’s Children at Long Beach Memorial misdiagnosed Tori Moreno’s inoperable stage 4 BSG 😐
David Gorski has the gall to profer that City of Hope misdiagnosed Tori Moreno’s inoperable stage 4 brain stem glioma 😦
David Gorski has the chutzpah to pontificate that Dr. Fred Epstein in New York misdiagnosed Tori Moreno’s inoperable stage IV brainstem glioma 😡
David Gorski; who is a BREAST cancer oncology specialist, and NOT a BRAIN cancer oncology specialist, has the presumptiveness to speculate that 3 different medical opinions could have misdiagnosed Tori Moreno in August 1998; who was diagnosed with a very large tumor, about 3 inches in the largest diameter and located in the brain stem, which was too risky for surgery, and about which her parents were told by ALL 3, that Tori’s brain cancer was fatal and, she would die in a few days or at the most, 2-6 weeks, and that there was nothing that could be done, and was finally put on antineoplaston therapy in October, when she was about 3 ½ months old, and in such condition that they were afraid that she might die at any time, David H. Gorski, M.D., Ph.D., FACS; who claims, “I do know cancer science” [3], has the audacity, because of his “book learnin'” to postulate his “science-based medicine theory”, but he obviously does NOT have the “balls” to name the medical institutions or doctors involved, whose opinions he disagrees with ☻
——————————————————————
(20:00)
——————————————————————
David Gorski; who has had the stupendity to state: “[I]f I had screwed up, I would have admitted it” [4], in the case of Hannah Bradley, who had a grade III anaplastic astrocytoma brain tumor, while noting that Hannah had epileptic seizures, he then serendipitously stupified the not-so-startling but nonetheless shocking revelations that he seemingly had fallen when climbing a tree, and been hit by every “stupid stick” on the way to reinforcing Newton’s Law of Gravity; whilst claiming that he had watched the entire movie about her trip to the Burzynski Clinic, but was inexplicably unable to determine that the reason Hannah experienced a “change in mood” and “double-vision”, was because, as stated in the movie, a nurse said it was because of a new anti-seizure drug she had NOT used before to control her epileptic seizures, and which was most likely responsible for the rash that Hannah developed, which GorskGeek acted clueless about [5] 😛
——————————————————————
If GorskGeek actually knew HOW to apply SCIENCE, he might be somewhat credible 😅
Never let it be said that Mark Crislip can’t match “Orac” in shameless promotion of “Orac’s” shameless stupidity 😜
——————————————————————
The second video is David Gorski’s brother in bulkshit, Bob Blaskiewicz, of Skeptical Humanities and The Other Burzynski Patient Group
It’s entitled, appropriately enough, “Why We Fight (Part II): It’s All About the Patients”
Robert Blaskiewicz is the epitome of a “Medical Crank” 😲
@rjblaskiewicz is “infamous” for talking out of both sides of his mouth 😂
Blatherskitewicz is the “intellectual juggernaut” who during the Google+ Hangout
Burzynski Discussion, 9/28/2013, stated:
“we respect scientific method“ [6]
But if he really does, he certainly does NOT prove it on theotherburzynskipatientgroup which is saturated with so much of his bias, that it’s extremely difficult for one to separate his bullshit from the actual patient
story, and NO ONE can draw any coherent science-based conclusions from his “stories” because they grossly lack the necessary scientific data, such as:
——————————————————————
1. When were they diagnosed with cancer ?
2. What previous treatment(s) did they have, if any ?
(a) biopsy only
(b) surgery
(c) chemotherapy
(d) radiation
(e) radiotherapy
(f) other
3. How long did they have prior treatment(s), if any ?
4. How long were they on antineoplaston therapy ?
——————————————————————
Don’t forget to pay attention to Bob Blaskiewicz’s plea at the end of his talk to contact him if you’re interested in becoming active, since he needs all the help he can get 😃
Online, just mosey on over to The Other Burzynski Patient Group and contact Bob Blaskiewicz, and ask him why he posted such crap in an attempt to smear Burzynski, NOT based on SCIENCE, but instead on hyperbole 😶
But do NOT forget to remember that Bob is NOT a doctor, he’s a QUACK ☺
